Tugaloo


This weekend Kate, Dean and I went to Tugaloo State Park where we met up with Mom and Reggie and went camping in the RV. While there on Saturday I participated in a triathlon that started in the park. It was a really good weekend. During the bike leg of the race I went past two fields of sunflowers that were so beautiful I had to bring the kiddos back to take pics. Dean was a bit tuckered out and fell asleep in the car on the way there - so only Kate got to pose iwth the flowers (more of a girl thing anyway). There are so many scenic parts to Georgia that I would never have come across to appreciate if it weren't for these events.

It was really neat doing the race in the same park we were staying in - part of the run went past the RV site - were Kate an Dean waited to watch cheer me on.



The birds in this picture had moments prior been on the beach. Kate got within a few feet of them before they took off. Slow me couldn't get to camera quick enough. Still a great pic.



The water was so low that Kate and Dean couldn't swim because it wasn't really safe - but we had fun regardless - fishing, roasting marshmallows and collecting shells from the shoreline.



Once again we were at a campsite on the water so we had a great view and got to watch the boats go by.
