Time to move on to his next stop

We had a great visit with Monkey here in Lookout Mountain, Tennessee. He will be leaving us soon. See you next time. Thanks Lisagh for sharing him with us.

Monkey Adventures continue

While Monkey was visiting another friend arrived all the way from Texas...Flat Stanley. We took them both to watch PE Boy play baseball and they posed for some pics.

Even Mr. PE got into the fun.

PE boy took them later that day to Ruby Falls.

Here they are by the water fall sign

They really liked the drum at the gift shop!

Until the next adventure...

The Preppy Engineer.

See Rock City

After the Incline we headed over to Rock City Gardens. On the way we went by the "George Washington" Rock.

Do you see the resemblance?

Rock City Gardens is famous for the SEE ROCK CITY Barns that are all over the country. The history of Rock City is very interesting. Read about it here.

Monkey had a visit with the gnomes and enjoyed looking in the gift shop.

After touring, we enjoyed some fudge and a Starbucks and headed home for the evening.

Lookout Mountain Railway Incline

Lookout Mountain is a beautiful place to live , but it is also a tourist mecca!
PE boy and I took in the sights with Monkey today after his baseball game.
First stop was the Lookout Mountain Incline Railway

The Incline is listed as a National Historic Site as well as a National Historical Mechanical Engineering Landmark. It was built in 1895. It is referred to as the "Most Amazing Mile". It runs from St. Elmo up Lookout Mountain. Monkey enjoyed the view form the observation deck of Chattanooga.

This is a view of downtown Chattanooga and the Tennessee River.

We stopped in the gift shop and picked up a few goodies from Lookout Mountain to send to Lisagh to thank her letting Monkey come stay with us for a few days

Next stop Rock City Gardens...
