Innkeepers' Day Off

Misc_photos_007
Well, it finally snowed in North Georgia, although only about a half inch, but just enough to make things pretty. So, combined with 35_mph winds and 27 degree temps, conditions were perfect for a day hike. An hour and a half north of Atlanta puts you on the Appalachian Trail and into stellar views of North Carolina. Did I mention the bear tracks we encountered on the trail in the newly fallen snow?? Suddenly you find yourself looking behind you at the slightest noise or movement. We encountered several AT thru-hikers getting an early start heading towards Maine. Wow!!

Misc_photos_013Following a long day on the AT, my friend, Lee, and I decided to hike up to Mt. Yonah and check out the climbing routes as he had passed the mountain many times and had always been curious. He was impressed and will return I’m sure.

So, Innkeepers do get out and have fun in the woods. It’s nice to have an understanding Boss!
