Stone Mountain Park

Stone Mountain: Native American Pow-Wow

Quite by accident we arrived at the Stone Mountain Park just in time for the start of the annual 4-day Native American Festival and Pow-Wow.  It was an unexpected opportunity to meet some real Native Americans and to buy some authentic Indian gifts for the grandchildren.  We also had, for lunch, Indian tacos (made with … Continue reading »

Monday was beautiful, though a bit coolish, in Chattanooga. I was feeling a bit sniffly, but decided to ignore my stuffy nose and take advantage of the clear skies to get some photos at Chickamauga National Military Park and Lookout Mountain, sites of two very significant Civil War battles. Significant for the outcome of the … Continue reading »
