Big Foot and Bare Feet goes hiking
I love the mountains
But this picture (preparing for my latest take off) will be ten years old this summer

That's a great photo. Looks like loads of fun. I always wanted to do something like that, but guess I'd have to have a wing the size of a 747 to keep me aloft.

Great video. Boone, NC is just up the mountain from where I live. Only about 35 or 40 miles away (I went to college at ASU in Boone back in the early 1970s).
I’m not sure if this post should go in the “Families” thread or the “Adventure” thread, so I’m going to post it in both. Hope no one minds.
Today was one of those rare days when the entire family got together at the same time – all four children and spouses, and all four grandchildren. We had a great time on a good, old-fashioned family picnic to Mt. Mitchell. I think the highlight of the trip was when we all climbed to the top of the mountain and my boys and I took our picture in the same spot where we had taken a photo almost 30 years ago. I wish we had the old photo with us so we could have oriented ourselves exactly the same, but you get the idea.
Everything has changed on the top of the mountain since that day the boys and I climbed to the summit of Mt. Mitchell way back in 1987. About the only thing that was the same is the big rock to our right in the old photo and the same rock that's to our left in today's photo.
In the 1987 photo, the boys and I had just finished a four-day hiking trip from Table Rock to Mt. Mitchell (a distance of about 75 miles). As we were standing there in the same spot where we were in ’87, we talked about making a "30 year commemorative hike" in 2017. If we do, I think I want to insist we take about a week to 10 days this time. It’s a whole lot further from Table Rock to Mt. Mitchell now than it was 30 years ago.
