Red Top Mountain Lakeside Trail

Kid friendly Hikes have been the season we’ve been in! Since adding a third child to our tribe! This paved path is ADA accessible and stroller friendly! With stunning views, picnic tables, plenty of lakeshore spots to view the lake and explore. Our kids love finding shells and skipping rocks here. On another kid friendly note it has an incredible playground and an interactive story throughout the trail that you or your kid can read along the way.

Trail is .75 miles (round trip)

This trail isn’t too long, lots of things to entertain the kids! This is voted our kids favorite trail!

Our go to trail to get a change of scenery and let the kids be kids and explore!

The Vaughn cabin, a historic 1800s cabin located on the trail.

Where our boys like to rest!

Definitely a lot to check out! Add this to the list!

Toccoa Falls

   Toccoa Falls is a very short hike/walk it is probably .2 until you reach the base of the waterfall. So if your looking for something easy this is definitely it. Don't cut your day short there are several hikes in the area such as Raven Cliff Falls, Unicoi State Park, Ana Ruby Falls and Yonah Mountain and more. We were not far from downtown Helen so we spent the afternoon there at there Octoberfest and had lunch at a great pizza joint.

Bonnaroo 2016

                         + RADIATE POSITIVITY +

   Recently I downloaded this pretty rad app called Qapital. It is a banking app which helps you save for the things you want or places you want to go. With neat little tips and saving ideas you are able to meet your savings goals in no time. I explored the app myself and was able to attend Bonnaroo because of Qapital. It only took me two weeks and some neat savings tips through Qapital and I was off to Radiate Positivity at Bonnaroo's 15th year anniversary. It's really simple and free, just download the app and start creating your goals! 

                                             www.Qapital.com

After reaching my goal on Qapital I made it under the sun at Bonnaroo!

I Believe we are a generation of explorers and dreamers. Every explorer and dreamer needs Qapital the app downloaded onto their phone.

What should I  save for next? 

Comment below where I should go next!
