Last Sunday we took a drive.....

Sunday was a beautiful sunny day so we drove about an hour

from home to this lovely California State Park.

It was really icy on the path down to the falls so we

only went so far as we didn't have YakTrax on our boots.

Definitely need to get some!

Looking down at the falls through the mist...

Looking down the river past the falls...

It was so cold the mist was freezing on the trees....

Waterfall Paradise

Yesterday we went 1 1/2 hour into the Sierra Madres where we spent an enjoyable day hiking up to the falls, playing in the falls and having a delicious picnic. All of this surrounded by countless butterflies. Here are only a few of the photos I took of our wonderful day.

Part of the falls-there were pools we could climb

into and soak our cares away...oops-we're

in Mexico and we have no cares here!

Lunch is served-yummy beef stew, tortillas,

rice, refried beans and an avacado sauce that

was superb! Our drinks were from a dried Jamaica flower
Very refreshing.

Swallowtail

Later after we were back our hotel the baby turtles
were released- those are Dave's feet....

We had a stellar day!
