Weekend trip to Chattanooga, TN


We had a great weekend with a short window of good weather so we loaded up and went to Chattanooga. There are so many fun things to do there we will definitely go back again.

Panning for gold!

After a tour of Ruby Falls we headed through the gift shop where I bought a bag of dirt for the kids. Awe, what a nice mom to by dirt for your kids......right.
They had it set up for the kids to pan for all kinds of different stones. That was fun for them.


The picture doesn't do it justice. Ruby Falls was beautiful. It's a waterfall that's inside the mountain about 200 feet below the surface.

Next stop.....The Incline Train. This was a first for all of us to ride straight up the side of the mountain. The kids were wishing it was as fast as a rollercoaster. Darn, it only went less than 10 MPH.

It's about a 70% incline making it the steepeset passenger train in the world. Daddy was scared but he had his Little girl to calm him down. ha ha ha. Good thing it's only a mile long.

Fom the top of the Mountain you could see the Smoky Mountains.

Gee, I hope the brakes work!

Lots of fun for all of us!
