Nathan & Dad's Big Adv. - Day 7

YOUNG HARRIS, GA - Started today out with a little North Georgia Geocaching. Found a 3 stage cache that started on the campus of Young Harris College. Turned out it was located at a small waterfall that Aunt Barbara had wanted to take us to anyway. It eventually let us to a very interesting archeological siteof some possibly ancient Indian petroglyphs. One Cherokee story relating to the rocks is that the marks, many of which look like animal tracks, were created when the animals left the "great canoe" after a world wide flood and the rocks were still soft. Aunt Barbara accompanied us and lent some important assistance. As a reward, she learned why the nearby Track Rock Road was so named.

From there we swung by the house on the way to the lake for a cruise on their yet unnamed boat. We spent a couple of hours out on the water with some beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and forest. Nathan and I each had a turn at the helm. Nathan was very serious and real professional behind the wheel.

Went home to relax and take it easy. Had a great dinner. Later, Nathan asked Aunt Barbara to make him a milkshake. Then she made us a couple of ice cream sodas. Hey, it's my vacation. I can indulge, can't I?

Mapped out a couple of caches to try in the morning. Also hope to visit Bald Mountain, the tallest point in Georgia - just a few miles down the road.
