Mark and Duck figuring out our plan as to how we were going to get to the other side of a creek that we wanted to cross.
Lydia looking at the spring that we found near the old Moon Shine Still. She's been hanging around Ben too long, it's that tongue thing.

This is the Spring that we found at the end of the creek with a lot of walking and mud stomping, but it was worth it.


It actually had two spings in this one hole, you could see the boil's moving.



Adventure Ride

These are some of the bottles from the Old Moon Shine Still that we found at the end of the creek. This was the ultimate find for me, I love old things and to go on an adventure ride on a creek that we had never been on and had to cut our way up it and end up parked right in front of this Old Still was just breath taking for me. There were around 12 bottles or so, and as we were leaving Duck found a couple of old cork bottles that were a dark color. I hope to add more on the Moon Shine Still once I try and find out more info on it, so check back, will post when I find out.
This was the cook drum. If you look at the end of the drum you can even see the axe mark that busted the drum once it was found.

This was definetly a rare find and we had a blast on the Adventure to find it.

Camping Trip

Colby was the only Child that wanted to fish, and he had the patience seein how they were not biting (unless it was 2" or less).
Dale and Janice making fun of me putting a worm on with a pair of pliers. I don't touch live bait!
There is a technique to doing it, Colby even wanted to see how.


Still trying to get the worm on (without touching it) uk!

Camping Trip

We took two of our Grand Kids Madison and Colby Camping on our property and we were blessed that Dale & Janice and Sarah wanted to come also. We decided to take them fishing at Natural Bridge and as you can see they were more interested in making condos for the worms. But they did have fun.
The Girls running up the hill and Colby playing in the water. They kept asking if they could go swimming at the St. Marks River, were they often do in the summer with their parents, but we tried to tell them it is WINTER and ya can't swim in the winter..
Mark caught this pic of Sarah. Sarah usually gets real mad when you take her picture but sometimes you can sneak one in on her..


Haley my great niece (Leah's daughter) joined us. She was at her grandma's and we picked her up for the trip..


New Creek into Big Blue 2

We did finally end up in Big Blue, the creek came into the back creek that comes into Big Blue... We were gathering at the floating docks in Big Blue
Duck and Dale forged ahead by foot to see if the opening ahead was in fact Big Blue, and it was, so they finished cutting a few limbs so that we could all get through...

Yeap!!! that's it (Big Blue). Headed back from their land venture to see what was ahead...

Wacissa River Christmas Party 2008

For those of you who left early, we broke out the twister game that Tammy left and as you can see we had a blast. Us that dared to play was Ben, Lydia, Frank and me... I will say that Ben had some of the worst positions.
Of course Lydia had a few also..

It was pretty hard to hold your dot, while you were cracking up laughing...
