See Rock City!

Rock City was one of my favorite memories from when I was a little girl!  I totally remembered the swinging bridge  (I made my dad hold my hands to cross) and I remembered the “Fat Man Squeeze” (too narrow for one member of our family to make it!).  I’m guessing I was about 5 or 6 years old and I hadn’t been back since.  

This weekend we took the kids up to Mentone, AL and just had to take a day trip up to Rock City.  Needless to say I wasn’t disappointed and neither were the kids.  Within the first five minutes I was giggling just like a little kid!  The bridge still gave me the willies but Solomon seemed to love it.  Dave made it a point to make exagerated bounces just to heighten my experience.  We are already trying to plan another trip up to the area just so we can stop through again.
