One advantage of rainy days is that I get a chance to work on the giant backlog of pictures I have on my computer. We’ll need a lot of rain for me to get completely caught up, but I can say that I am making progress.
In January Betsy and I made a trip to Ozone, Tennessee, which is only about ten miles from our heart. We went to visit Ozone Falls. We’d been there several times before, but on this visit there were no leaves on the trees to hide the view and there had been plenty of rain in the days before our visit. These combined to give us a wonderful experience.
Ozone Falls is a 110 foot waterfall in the Ozone State Natural Area. There is a short, nice trail along Fall Creek to the brink of the falls. It is also possible to hike down into the gorge to the base of the falls and to cascades and a smaller waterfall below the main one. I got adventuresome and explored in the gorge for the first time.
It was a great way to spend a beautiful winter day. If you would like to see more pictures of this area click HERE.
