David and Mom on the porch at the top of Brasstown Bald, the highest point in GA. David and I hiked up. I finally broke down and bought a walking stick, but at least I made it all the way up and back! |

This was the coolest thing ever. A HUGE, like 5 foot, the biggest I ever saw, rattlesnake at the Brasstown Bald picnic area. I got video of him too but can't find my cord to upload. |

David and I took some kids on a nature walk. We didn't see many birds, but saw other neat stuff including this baby snake. The kids learned a lot from David and we all had a blast. |

We had a picnic at Kings Mountain in South Carolina, where we met up with Jill, India and Sasha. It was a tiny but wet and dark but you can't stop a Simpson from having fun. This is David and Matthew in the rain. |
