Panola Mountain State Park

Staycationers there are so many parks around Atlanta. So, Coop and I went to Panola Mountain State Park. IMG_5797This marker tells you how far it is to each park area. IMG_5798There are over 20 miles of trails like this one. There are three other ones that are marked trails within the forest. It is amazingly lush and green. They have signs for deer, IMG_5806but we did not see any. They have Picnic shelters you can rent. They also have bikes you can rent and jon boats and canoes. They have an archery area and give classes (you can rent the equipment) They also have rustic campsites, not my style but hey…

There is not much shade on the trail. IMG_5799We were in about a mile and a half and it was just too hot for the Coop.IMG_5800I had plenty of water for him, but we had to turn around. When we got back to the car the sky clouded up a little. IMG_5805We were kinda hoping it would rain.

I will return and I think I might rent a bike next time. More to tell then!

Kennesaw Mountain

Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park IMG_5791is a 2,965 acre national park that preserves the civil war battleground of the Atlanta Campaign. Opposing forces maneuvered and fought here from June 19, 1864 until July 2, 1864.

We started at the top of Kennesaw mountain, which the elevation is 1,808 above sea level.IMG_5781We can see Atlanta, Buckhead, Stone Mountain. It is so cool. IMG_5788Okay it was a little hazy. We took this photo by one of the cannons on Kennesaw Mountain…IMG_5785We kept walking on to Little Kennesaw Mountain and then that leads to Pigeon Hill…IMG_5790We didn’t go all of the way to Pigeon Hill but we walked a long way. The one thing Ella and I kept saying as we were hiking is they brought those cannons all the way up here in those uniforms, we do not know how.

It was a great day for hiking and fun to do, I totally recommend it for Staycationers, oh and visitors to our city.

Let No One Decide For You

You’ll know you’ve made the right decision when there is peace in your heart. Stop listening to what the world says you should do. Start listening to your own heart. There are only a few people in this world who will stay completely true to you, and YOU should be one of them. Listen to your own voice, your own soul, too many people listen to the noise of the world, instead of themselves. Deep inside, you know what you want, let no one decide that for you. — Unknown
