The long walk home

When you listen to your dad, things may not go as planned. When things don’t go as planned, you may end up stuck in the mountains. When you get stuck in the mountains, you run low on food. When you run low on food, you get hangry. When you get hangry, things go downhill...fast.
The place was Tennessee, family vacation of sometime in the past. We were “bonding” as our parents had put it and we are an adventurous family. Sometimes too adventurous for our own good. Well, we were going to go on a short trip to the falls at the top of the mountains. Following a trail should be fine, right? When you have to leap over a brook to get to the trail, well that should be a flag right there. Being our family, we just trudged along and were going into a 7 hour journey...unprepared. That was a very long day. To be honest, I never thought I would get sick of mountains, believe me I did. We wandered and wandered and finally found our way out by a "majorly" private road. Luckily, afterwards we all went to a restaurant and pigged out at the all you can eat buffet. This is only one of the many, many experiences we have gone through as a family. I love my family, and we could have all the interesting extravaganzas we may. However, we have grown closer because of it!
