As promised (I know you have all been waiting with baited breath) I thought I would share a few more photos from our trip to Rock City, Tennessee. It was such a fun day exploring the nooks and crannies and I marveled at the creativity and beauty that was around every corner.

First up – Lover’s Leap complete with a story to go with it. This rock that juts out from the side of Lookout Mountain gets its name from the Cherokee legend of two young lovers, a brave named Sautee and a beautiful maiden named Nacoochee, from two feuding tribes. According to the legend, Sautee was captured and thrown from the top of Lover’s Leap.

Of course I had to photograph the waterfall both from afar and from on top. There was a great little path that led over the top and it was completely safe –you know me and my quest for waterfall safety.

There is an overlook that allows visitors to view 7 states at once.

Another fun area was Fat Man’s Squeeze. Believe me, it was really skinny but we both fit through. Whew.

Fun trip and definitely one that was memorable. Thanks for coming along on our vacation with us.
