Hocking Hills

Hocking Hills State Park in Ohio has been on K's list of places to go since we started planning the whole journey.  We looked into camping there, but it's one of the pricier state parks, and it's only an hour and a half or so from Bill's parents' house, so we took a day and headed out.  

First, the water is LOW.  As in, the waterfalls almost aren't even there.  Which actually gave us a very cool way of looking at things, as the water was so sporadic in places that it ended up looking like rain.  Very cool.  This is one of G's pictures.  He loves to steal my camera and take pictures.  He's got a good eye for interesting shots.  He's saving up for a camera, but the one like mine is about $300, so I think he'll need to ask for Christmas money to be able to get it.      

Devil's Bathtub.  Rumored to go all the way down to Hades itself.  This is a treacherous little spot.  The sides are sheer and slippery, which means that once you've found your way in, you're unlikely to find your way out.  Bill read that many people have drowned in this spot.              

When G isn't taking my camera, he's offering to be in the shots for me.  These cool bridges were all over the place.  I was totally digging this park because of their really cool bridges throughout.          

This bridge was my favorite.  All the sections are independent.  So there are gaps.  And there are no rails to hold onto.  NB's on the edge, just as he lives his life.  Freaked a lot of people out, but he knows what he's doing.  All in all, we had a delightful time at the park.  Bill's mom joined us, which was so much fun for us.  We don't normally explore parks with other people, so that was a true treat for us.
