Noccalula Falls Park Gadsden AL. Spring, March 2024

This spring 2024, we visited Noccalula Falls Park in Gadsden AL...these photos were taken March 2024...

This place is so beautiful and amazing....

We walked the park and we also took the little train ride around it as well...

We were the only ones on the ride at the time, maybe that's why we are grinning so...it was so much fun...

There is a Pioneer Village in the park, being here makes you feel like you are going back in time...

I think Robert's favorite pose is pointing at things, lol! He's done this pose at many of our destinations...I so love him! 

We hiked the trail to the bottom of the waterfall....

The short hike was so pretty... and the waterfall was spectacular...

Thanks for coming along with us today!

Note: The Noccalulu Falls Park has an admission charge to get inside, but there is a lot to do there, (we spent several hours there), there's the little train ride with a tour guide who tells you about the park, and there's the pioneer village to explore, a covered bridge, a small animal exhibit, gardens with flowers, as well as views to the upper portion of the waterfall, and access to the lower portion of the waterfall through a short trail with creek views and lots of rocks, and in case you are wondering...we didn't feel like the trail was too hard for us, and we are in our 50's. 

I wanted to mention that there is also a parking lot on the other side of the creek that you can also visit and see a different vantage point of the waterfall and there is no admission charge there. You'll find it at the entrance that goes to the campground and there's parking over there to see Noccalulu Falls and there's a bridge to walk over and picnic tables as well. 

But we would definitely recommend seeing all that the other side has to see and do if you are going to Noccalulu Falls, it is well worth the admission charge to get in and see all that's there. 

We loved our visit! 

Eufaula Alabama Fall November 2023

 We visited Eufaula Alabama November 2023 as part of our fall trip to see the nearby Park called Providence Canyon State Park in Lumpkin Georgia, (you'll find that post below if you keep scrolling this webpage or you can click HERE). I'm behind on posting our trips, but this is the timeframe that the photos were taken...

Eufaula is a pretty and historic small town in Southeast Alabama, we enjoyed seeing all of the pretty places there....

We love the walkability of the historic downtown, there are several restaurants and shops, and we had lunch at a great restaurant while we were there called El Jalisco Mexican Grill,...the atmosphere and food was wonderful and affordable as well....

Across from the Welcome Center Chamber of Commerce downtown is a trail that we enjoyed walking..it was a paved trail and not very far down the trail we got to see views of Lake Eufaula.....

and we were happy to get to see some fall foilage there too....

We each had to pose for a picture by the Big Bass....

 We had planned on touring one of the old mansions in Eufaula and wanted to see this one, but when we got there it was not open that day, it was a holiday, (I can't remember which it was). There was someone there who talked to us and said we could peek in the windows and take some photos there, but the tour guide was off and not there this day. It was a beautiful old place... we hope we'll get the chance to see it the next time we come to visit this town. It was a fun little fall getaway! 

Thanks for coming along with us today! 

Providence Canyon State Park, Ga November 2023

I've been behind on getting our trips that we've taken last year and this year posted, but I'm going to be posting them all hopefully this week...these photos were taken in the Fall of 2023, in November on our visit to Providence Canyon State Park, in Lumpkin Georgia....

The weather was beautiful and this place really is amazing...I really can't capture how pretty this place really is.....and it is a peaceful quiet place too...

We were happy to see a little bit of fall foilage the day we were here...

Thanks for coming along with us today! 

If you are coming from Eufaula Alabama to get to Lumpkin Georgia there is a great restaurant just as you cross into Georgia called Michelle's Buffet, it's at 777 US Hwy 82, in Georgetown, Georgia, we ate there for lunch and she had everything imaginable and it was delicious! If you are looking for great country food, (she even had baked chicken), that's the place to go, for sure. We would highly recommend it.
