Sabbath Walk on the North Chickamauga Creek

The Smith, Wright,  and Swafford families made a trek to the North Chickamauga Creek: According to Smite "You know you can't move a heard." We has a thunderous time walking a few hundred feed down the soaking trail. Anthony's prays were answered as non of the oldies fell or broke anything. 

Sadie enjoyed walking with the others as all three were highly photographed.
