Helton Creek Falls & Vogel State Park

Wow! This week with Jordan is flying by. Today we paid a visit to Helton Creek Falls and Vogel State Park. In my opinion, Helton Creek Falls is the prettiest waterfalls in north Georgia. We enjoyed hopping the rocks, and Jordan waded into the creek near the falls.
These falls are a little hard to get to - 3 miles into the forest on a narrow, dusty road, but they are well worth the effort. The cooling effect of the water, and the shade made it nice and cool.

On the way back we stopped at Vogel for a picnic lunch and a walk around the lake. There were a good many people there fishing, swimming, on paddle boats, or just enjoying the view.

Back home the day lilies were really coming out.
