This is the last set from my trip to Hemlock Falls. It was such great timing to be there. There weren’t really any people and the rain had just stopped so the lighting was kind of my favorite. Next time I visit I hope to #seeyououtthere until then #natureiswaiting

The trail on the way to Hemlock Falls is stunning. It’s filled with beautiful mountain streams and ferns. The streams were really flowing hard due to all of the rain, but I love that for shooting photos. It adds so much dynamism. #seeyououtthere #natureiswaiting

We went for a beautiful hike to Hemlock Falls over near Lake Burton. It’s one of the few waterfalls in North Georgia that I haven’t visited it yet. It was the perfect day for it and everyone on the trail was being good about social distancing and making sure you had enough space. #natureiswaiting #seeyououtthere

More shots from that amazing little nature trail. The area around Carter’s Lake, and the lake itself are excellent for warm weather fun. #natureiswaiting #seeyououtthere

Getting to explore Tumbling Waters Nature Trail was a lot of fun. It has these awesome tufts of grass at a lot of the rock edges through the cascades. They made for excellent points of interest in photos. I’ll have to come back with my real camera gear sometime, but this was just a spur of the moment decision and it ended up being so much fun. #natureiswaiting #seeyououtthere

As hikers, adventurers, and outdoors people we focus a lot on training our bodies to be strong so we can go on these great adventures. ↟ ↟ In these strange times it especially important to focus on your mental and emotional strength too. ↟ ↟ I’m reminded of a quote from Mr. Fred Rogers. “Confronting our feelings always takes, strength, not weakness... It takes strength to acknowledge our sadness and to grieve and to let our grief and our anger flow in tears when they need to. It takes strength to talk about our feelings and to reach out for help and comfort when we need it.” ↟ ↟ So I encourage you to take the time to exercise this sort of strength and reach out for help and comfort. One day we’ll be back out there adventuring and I hope to #seeyououtthere because #natureiswaiting

I just wanted to take a moment and brag on my wife for a little bit. She’s an amazing woman. She’s smart, strong, and caring. Everyday I’m so impressed by how much she does for those she knows and for her community. A great example is one of her favorite things is when she volunteered at the Atlanta History Center. She was thrilled to work there because it combined her loves of history and serving. A few months ago she got her Masters in Education and started on her journey to become a teacher. She wanted to do this so she could work and serve in her community. It’s ended up being a crazy year to start a new career, but she’s been so impressive with the way she has navigated these wild times and I felt that I needed to take the time to lift her up at let all of y’all know how amazing I think this person is because she deserves all of the praise and adoration. #amazingwoman

We went out to a little waterfall below my parents house on Saturday. I’ve gone there since I was in elementary school, so I knew no one would be there and we could have some socially distant fun. Hudson, Maddux, and I spent a relaxing 3 hours in the stream by ourselves playing under a waterfall. I wanted to make sure I visited this place again, because I know soon the area is getting developed into a neighborhood. Which is a bummer. I wish I could’ve just bought up the land. Hopefully soon we won’t have to make sure we’re all alone to adventure and I’ll #seeyououtthere because #natureiswaiting

This is a photo of the Gobi Desert near Crescent Lake in Dunhuang China. It’s a beautiful country full of lovely people. I thoroughly enjoyed my trip and one day hope to return. As you look at this photograph of flowers blooming in the desert I encourage y’all to think of the future. Right now our life may seem harsh and dry like the desert but hopefully soon it will be wonderful and beautiful like these blooms. When it does I hope to #seeyououtthere until then #natureiswaiting
