Visiting the Mountains





It's becoming a tradition to visit the family cabin in Pocahontas County for Memorial Day Weekend. The girls were eager to visit the mountains or as Belle referred to it -- Capitol Market. She confused cabin with Capitol Market.


We had a wonderful weekeend with Grandma and Grandpa. Among our adventures we took a trip on "Thomas the Train" to Whittaker station at Cass. Belle enjoyed the trains except for when the whistle blowed. "It's to noisy," she said.


Grandpa took the girls for a short fishing trip to Seneca Lake. Belle was more interested in reeling in the line than waiting for a fish to take bite the bait. Lilly just wanted to get in the water.

Once again, we visited the playground at Green Bank Elementary. On one visit, Belle discovered a fuzzy caterpillar and picked it up. Lilly wouldn't hold it or touch the fishing worms. Belle is certainly more outdoorsy than Lilly, but both girls enjoyed playing outside at the cabin -- taking many trips down to the bridge to throw rocks into the creek (just like Aunt Sara and Mommy when they were little.)
