Today we headed east to the Georgia Mountains. We followed twisty curvy roads and came upon Amicalola Falls. Of course we went the hardest way you could go. There were 425 steps down to get to this point of the falls and another 157 more steps to the bottom. (which we didn't do)
This picture was taken with my zoom lens. The sun was beautiful shining on the water.
And yes we were in for our workout for the day. 425 steps back up to the top. Whew!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After leaving there we drove through more curvy roads before getting to Helen, GA. We have been here two other times, but it is such a cool town. All the buildings are built the same. They all have the German look to them.
This is Paul's restaurant which has the best Prime Rib I have ever had, but the main restaurant didn't open until 2:00 and we were ready to eat. The very back far left is all an open area that overlooks the creek. It is more of a sports bar, so that was were we ate.

These were some beautiful birds. This sweet looking one took a chunk out of my hand.
There she is acting all sweet and innocent.
This lady was holding this bird and said she was very shy and all of a sudden he jumped over to..
Buddy. He was a bit surpised and wasn't sure what to do. I think she liked him. :)
The flowers are just beautiful here. Not sure how much longer they will last.
After leaving there we took Hwy 60 back toward Dalton, and yes Buddy had some fun on the curvy roads. We passed several motorcycles at one of the sharp turns and one didn't quite make it. He was in the ditch and not moving. Sure hope he is okay. Several emergency vehicles were headed that way.
This was at an overlook at Fort Mountain.
