Weekly Trials. Tribulations and Photos experienced while hiking

Tim's Ford 12.17.2024

On Saturday, thirteen TTA members hiked Lost Creek Trail, Marble Plains Loop and Old Spann House Trail at Tim’s Ford State Park in Winchester.  The hikers were from Scenic City, Murfreesboro and Highland Rim Chapters.  They are Tom McElhone, Jean Smith, Tim Booth, Marie Holland, Bob Anderson, John Prescott, Joan Hartvigsen, Albert Suppinger, Patty Deen, Amanda Carkhuff, Martina Terazas, J.C. Saunders and Cody Bain.  We also visited two campsites: The Lost Creek Campsite and the Spann House campsites.  Both campsites had beautiful views of Tim’s Ford Lake.

In 1920 we took children out of the coal mines.

In 2020 the most popular video game on the market was Minecraft.

The children yearn for the mines.

 I do not have a write-up for this hike, but it looks a little cold a gloomy.
