Early in the morning we left Cedar Stone Campground and drove back through Stone Mountain State Park and back up onto the Parkway at MM229. Once back on track, we pulled over for overlooks, like always. I like this photo where we are looking back at the Parkway.

Several others.



I saw another house that had been built on another mountaintop in a carved-out niche in the trees.


We stopped at Jeffress Park.

To hike the Cascades Trail, a pleasant 1 mile loop.




To an impressive waterfall.



And back out.

After, we relaxed and enjoyed the view, much as this couple was doing.
