North Georgia Mountains

The weekend after the river adventure, we (Cole , Ashley, and our 2 dogs), decided to drive up to north Georgia to show Cole & Ashley Young Harris College AND hike 8 miles from the campus to the highest point in Georgia, Brasstown Bald, which has a summit elevation of 4,784 feet above sea level.We knew the hike would take a while, but actually took much longer then I thought it would...a total of 4+ hours to complete the entire hike, but thankfully we got to drive back down since we took two cars to the summit.

Even though we were extremely tired from the long hike and the drive home, we somehow made it out again that night to grab some cheap dinner at TDS, Taqueria Del Sol and rewarded ourselves with delicious homemade ice cream at Jeni's Ice Creams.

One average, especially on the weekends, the line is wrapped around the building and into the parking lot just to get it- obviously a local favorite. The best part of the entire experience it getting to try all the delicious flavors.
