The Silver Comet Trail & Stone Mountain

Saturday morning we were supposed to go hike Stone Mountain, but it was a horribly stormy night and rainy morning, so we opted out. Good choice, since the training hike was rescheduled for Sunday!

Instead, we went to the Silver Comet Trail where we walked about 5.5 miles as the skies began to clear. It was a beautiful day on the trail followed by a trip to Home Depot to get some container plants for the deck.

This morning we got up early and headed to Stone Mountain. Originally we were planning to hike up the mountain, down, around the based and then up and down again. Reality is that we decided to go to the Dogwood Festival today, so instead we hiked up and down twice in just over two hours. It was a nice hike and the weather was great! Check out our team nearly flying off the mountain in the wind this morning! (Click on the link for the full size images.)

We then ran off to the Dogwood Festival to eat a picnic lunch, listen to the music and let the dogs have some play time in the park. Yay us! ;-)
