"What A Beautiful Day" on Table Mt.

Tammy Edwards and I hiked Table Mr Sunday, to see the 

Spring wildflowers.  It was my first time to see this annual 

event.  I've been to the top on several occasion but  for 

some reason  never in the springtime.     WOW !

Tammy likes to do photography also and the goal was to 

take photos of what ever caught our eye.  Their are also 

several waterfalls to see this time of year.

It was early morning and not many people about.  Walking atop

the mountain was breath taking.  The green of the grass and 

the blues and yellows of the flowers was almost unreal.  Black cows 

still bedded down, enjoying the morning as much as we were.

The first waterfall we came to, had quite the trail getting into it.

There was a lot of butt sliding, getting to the bottom.

LOL....   "Getting to the Bottom on Our Bottoms"

Just Beautiful!!!   The photo on the right givers you some idea of 

the height .....   see in the top right corner, theirs a men 

and boy standing on the edge, looking over.

After some time well spent at the first fall we headed across the
 top again to the the next. Walking along the cow trails, enjoy 
the beauty of the morning.

Leaving the trail, we cut across a big flat that led us to a good size creek. 
 As we followed the water, Tammy pointed out Salamanders.
That was a first for me also, I had never seen them in the wild before.

It was fun crossing back and forth over the creek and finding 

Salamanders along our way.    

Just where the creek dropped over the edge of the cliff, 

sat this rock and tree.  A man and lady were there taking photos

and told us it was called the "Priest and the Pulpit"

The trail in and out of this water fall was much easier.

So beautiful!  that's Tammy standing to the left.  

not quite as tall as the first falls, but just as impressive.

Heading back to the road, we took our time stopping to take shots 

of flowers, landscape and cows.

There were so many different flowers, these caught my eye by the

waters edge.   The wind was blowing pretty good as we came 

back across the top, so shooting flowers was a little tricky.

Water flowing was sure a wonderful sight, even knowing it 

would be gone in a few weeks.

Tammy had pointed out these little flowers in the rock as we

 started out in the morning, but they were not open yet.  We made 

sure to look for them on the way back and this is what we found.

Had the best day.  The beauty of it all will be gone soon, 

but  Tammy and I are plan more trips for next spring.
