My little vacation

So this weekend a few of my friends and i took a trip to Rock City. Rock city is a big park thing in chattanooga, and it was awesome. We had so much fun!! It was a perfect day. Heather and i had to go to visitation before we left, and we met some pretty interesting characters. Like a guy who was joking around about sacrificing animals in the back room of his neighbor's house.

When we got back we jumped in the car and began our 2 hour drive. I love road trips with friends, and this one was no exception. We had a blast going down the road flipping through radio stations and making fun of sappy country songs. One bathroom/gas stop later we were there. We pretty much almost died driving up the mountain...there were several close calls involving cars coming from the other way that were too busy looking out the window.

We walked around the park and saw all the beauty...it really was beautiful. The day went by fast with laughs and fun stuff...like jumping up and down on the swinging bridge and freaking everyone out.

After we left we went to chattanooga choo choo, and ate pizza in an old train car. It looked a little shady at first, but the pizza was really good. Then just wandered around in candy stores and little shops. Before too long we were on our way back to campus...after another gas stop...lauren playing with the speakers while i was trying to sleep...and another 2 hours in the car we were back on campus and i was ready to rejoin the ranks as inmate 9170/4.
