A Day in the Life of the Vacationers
Wake up in the morning and have some hot chocolate/tea/coffee...
...while listening to the sound of sizzling bacon...
...and enjoying this view from the kitchen window.
By 10:00 or so in the morning, all three families would gather up to throw a few snowballs...
...perhaps make a snowman or two (or three)...
...then go over the day's plans for hiking.
Before long, we had hit the trails, and if feeling adventurous, we sometimes even would go exploring, "making our own trails."
If anyone ever became thirsty, there were two remedies: 1) fill up your water bottle at the nearest stream/river/waterfall (no kidding-- this is by far the best tasting water on the earth!), or 2) do as the below photo depicts
Both are great options.

Popsicle, anyone?
We all had a blast climbing all over lots of huge rock formations like the one above. There aren't rocks anything like this in FL, so we all tok much delight in exploring them on our hikes!
Each evening we'd choose a different family's cabin in which to have supper. Following the meal and clean up, we'd father around the cozy fire to sing songs which praised God for the birth of our Savior, then we'd pull out the pillows and blankets for a movie and popcorn.
Lastly, we'd all say good night... and then wake up the next morning, eager to do it all over again!

Wow that place looks awesome. What a fun time. I need to get that information from you that would be so fun for a family get together.
Looks like fun and a blessed time together. Wonderful.
