the mountains

My girlfriend and I went up to the Chattahoochee National Forest to get away for the day and just spend some time together outside.

If you live in Atlanta or around you should definitely check out this area. It’s around 2 hours north of Atlanta and has so much to offer.

We went to Neel Gap and met a ton of AT thru hikers as well as the infamous orange kitty. We then went on a short hike to the upper and lower desoto falls, and we found this cute lil snake!

We ended our day doing some gem mining, i was living my webkinz dream. Artie Fact would be proud 😭 Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forests

A road sign welcomes visitors to the Pocono Mountains, set against a backdrop of trees and a clear sky. Text overlays invite viewers to "TAKE A TRIP WITH ME TO THE MOUNTAINS!".
A person uses a yellow and black power tool to carve wood on an outdoor workbench, secured with clamps. Another person stands nearby, observing the woodworking activity.
Four whimsical wooden figures, resembling faces with arms and legs, are attached to tree trunks in a wooded area. The figures appear to be climbing or hugging the trees.
