McKinney Falls State Park

We went to McKinney Falls State Park on Sunday. The Eaves family has camped there before and Michael camped there a number of times growing up. I actually didn't take any photos because we mostly swam and played in Onion Creek. We spent quite a bit of time playing in the waters above Lower Falls. The kids loved it, especially since there are quite a few shallow areas where the water is a little higher than ankle deep. Then we went to Upper Falls and explored the pool at the base of the waterfall. Tyler, despite wearing a life jacket, was not a fan of the Upper Falls pool because it got deep fast except near some of the shorelines. Daphne thought it was fantastic. Granted, she was also wearing a life vest and is pretty fearless. There were a number of adults who jumped from the rocks at the top of the waterfall into the pool below. Daphne probably would have gladly joined suit if she were allowed. Don't worry- we didn't take the kids anywhere near big drop-offs. Lydia and Andrew felt pretty comfortable in the water.
