Free Car!
A few of us were standing around talking about it with the victim when I learned a few more details about what happened.
1. He didn't lock the car door.
2. He left the keys in the car.
"They didn't steal your car. . .", I told him, "You gave it to them."

Review: Blue Ridge Parkway
After that stop, we drove through a tunnel
After we left Graveyard Fields, we stopped at a few more overlook spots. You would think that after you have seen one, you have seen them all. When you think that, you are wrong. Every stop seemed to offer a different view or a different angle, each one equally dramatic and beautiful.
By mid afternoon we reached the exit to hwy 276. We had only travelled half the distance I thought we would. My original plan was to get off the Pkwy at Asheville, but we were just North of Brevard. We took the exit and headed home so we could get some dinner. Taking our time and enjoying the Blue Ridge Parkway was incredible. The kids were good in the car all day, the views were one of a kind, and the weather was perfect for a day out with the family.

Botanical Gardens
Of the photos I did take, most of them were at a small area in the woods with scattered rocks.

Only 20 Pounds!
I really don't like the view from the new deck. The previous deck was much lower and had a much cleaner view of the falls. The falls are among the tallest in South Carolina but it seemed like you could only see the top half from this new location. I was disappointed. I took a few photos but my disappointment on the location wiped out my enthusiasm for photos.

Scream, Jump, and Cheer
I told you that my daughter is a cheerleader for the rec center football but never provided proof. So here is your proof:
The football team has gone undefeated this season and I was surprised to learn that there is a playoff system in place. Tuesday night will be their first post season game. Our schedule will now be determined week by week. Oh, the joy that brings to Cari's heart as she plans activities!
I'm not sure how high up this playoff system goes or how big of an area this will cover. I think we are about to find out how high is high because nobody can seem to stop the locomotive that is our #24.
Meanwhile, on the sidelines, there is our daughter cheering. She is having a blast with this. On Saturday we had our homecoming game and she was escorted by two football players. She still hasn't put down the flower one of the boys gave her.
She will scream, jump, and cheer the whole game and come home with 100% energy. Is there any slowing her down?

F U
Cari and I headed onto the trail that circles the lake. We made a stop at the bell tower and took some photos.
