Day 1 behind, we got a goodish sleep and woke up ready for day 2. Below is a panoramic image of the inside of our cabin. Note that this image is somewhat distorted in order to capture more of the room in one shot. It was NOT a roundish building :)
After a morning bike ride for some of us, we had lunch and later set out for our first hike.
(Yes, my camera did tip over at the end of the video. That was my excitement for the trip! I was sure I was going to be camera-less after that accident. Fortunately, however, it was not damaged.)
The first location was Beartown. I never picked up why it was called bear town. Seems like I heard that it had something to do with the pits being their "homes" in this "town," but I'm not certain.
It looked as though the trees were growing out of dirt/grass islands. Pretty weird looking.
We then set out to Droop Mountain, location of a Civl War battlefield.
A little nervous, Tyler?
This was a lookout tower from which you could see the locations of where the Union and Confederate forces were. It was a beautiful afternoon, and a beautiful view.
Hello Carrie!
Abbie walking down the tower.
And so ended that day, or at least the hiking of that day. But there will still two days to go . . .
