We returned to Panther Falls yesterday in order to swim and cliff jump. Eleanor took 20 minutes to get up the nerve to jump off a 4-foot cliff. Later it took her less than a minute to psych herself up for the big jump Alice did a couple days earlier.
There were several young men at the falls. They were townie types and very nice. After Alice jumped off the big cliff a few times one young man - who sported a powerful, powerful mullet - asked me how old the girls were. I told him and he responded "You watch out for the younger one; she's going to be trouble. You need to get her a dirt bike."
I laughed and agreed with him. When I told him that Eleanor was starting high school he was excited for her. He talked up how fun high school was for him while the two of them were in the cliff jumping line.
It was a nice day. We spent about 3 hours at the falls. Alice was just a bit grumpy that we left but our timing was perfect because as soon as I started the car, it started to rain.
