Waterfalls near Kyles Landing

Rory and I went for a 4 mile round trip hike near Kyle's landing. It took us around 4.5hrs. It was the most rigorous hike I have ever done, but awesome. I tried to upload the pictures in chronological order... there is a reason there are no pictures towards the end. It started raining and we looked disgusting by the end of the trip.
This picture was taken before we realized we were going the wrong way.
Then we got back on the correct trail and it started drizzling.
Indian Creek, this was the creek that the whole trail was based off of. Including 60 to 70 foot bluffs. They were terrifying.

This was a waterfall that was not in the book. We think that it is only around when it is raining.

The waterfalls were so beautiful. It was pouring down rain so the camera had trouble capturing flawless pictures, but it was gorgeous!
If you look closely, you will see a cave at the top of the waterfall. It was too slippery for us to climb and it isn't allowed anymore because of the bats.
The next morning we went on a 1/2 mile roundtrip hike to get to this waterfall. This one was very pretty but not as rewarding as the others.

Kincannon Wedding in Fort Smith


Rory and I headed to Fort Smith, AR for Memorial Day weekend. It was a fun filled 3-days of festivities. We got their Friday night and met up at Faux Pas (a classer version of the VFW). On Saturday we explored Fort Smith and went to the rehearsal, rehearsal dinner and then a bar that I can't quite remember the name of. The wedding was on Sunday, followed by a great reception. There was a photobooth at the reception!!!! It was awesome. So here are a few pictures...not in chronological order.




These are some of Rory's friends. From left to right: Meredith, me, Kate and Melissa.
