Good catch on the jumping, Morris!

This is wonderful, can't believe all that color. Thanks, CM!

Oh my! What a beautiful place! Thank you, Chickie!

That wasn't laurajane on that ledge tu the right.

Thanks Chickie.

It is in Hardin County lyndee.

Is this in Polk Co.? My husband use to go hunting down there.

Don't jump, laurajane!

Thank you goingsilver.

I have taken a lot of pics here in the past so I told laurajane I would back off so she can have some fun. I only have a few myself.

With scenery like this, did the cameras get a good work out???

Wow, what an amazing place!

Thank you snooker.

Still a lot of color. Nice.

It looked very easy to fall of of those rocks! No guard rails, or anything. We went to great lengths to protect our cameras.

Thank you young man. Don't worry, I know how importent it is to protect ones camera.

Nice one young lady. Be careful getting close to the edge.
