hikers enjoying the day
Amicalola, Cherokee for "tumbling waters"

looking toward home, about 7 miles as the crow flies
I heard the leaves were especially gorgeous on Highway 136 toward Amicalola Falls, so after finishing up work I pretended I was not in fact a local but an official tourist leaf-looker. It seems everyone else had the same idea, but I fit right in with the many others out swerving and stopping suddenly for the perfect shots.
