September 11 at Salmon River Falls

On September 11, we were driving around looking for something to do. I had said how much I enjoyed our drives before kids so we decided to see how far we can make it. We were in the Pulaski area so Todd was going to stop and say hi to his bff Harry Potter, but he wasn't home. Then he was like, hey the Salmon River Falls are around the corner. So we followed the signs to the parking area and decided the path looked easy enough. Needless to say, we were both surprised by the gorgeous falls we saw. We agreed it was something you picture seeing someplace exotic. The A-Team LOVED it....Abbey was mesmerized.... My camera was dying, so I was excited to get a few good shots. We walked to the top area...but made sure not to get too close. Adam loved splashing in the puddles on the flat rocks. Don't let Abbey's face fool you, she loved it there! I think she was making that face because I was trying to take her picture while holding her :) Back on the overlook, Adam just loved looking at the falls...here he is considering climbing the fence!! Todd and I both held him to look better, too, but it made nervous me a little anxious of course. We were trying to leave and to convince Adam to go...he was not into the idea. Finally, we got him to go, letting him walk himself down the trail a bit. When we got to the parking area, there was a little girl and it was so cute...he went up to her and was clearly telling her what he saw, using his hands to show her how high the water was! (My Italian has rubbed off on him a little!) My favorite kind of day...a new adventure, but not too far from home!
