In July of 1985, my kids and I went to Stone Mountain for the day. We picnicked on the lawn in front of the carving, went swimming and stayed for the laser show. It was the second time we went there. The first time was when my son, Seth, was about three years old. He was so scared that the giant rock was going to roll over on us that he couldn’t eat his lunch!

Fun memory about Stone Mountain, especially Seth's first visit. That made me chuckle.
That is a big rock for a 3 yr old to look up at. What's carved on it.
Nice shot of the kids.
Got to visit Stone Mountain for the first time 2 years ago. What a beautiful park. I had never heard of it before, but thankfully my girlfriend lives in Atlanta-so we took in the sites. I love your theme for Wednesdays!
Lots of great memories to make at that mountain! No swimming anymore though. 🙁
You knew I would love this one. This will be home for another 6 months again this winter. Sure hope we get to meet up! Remember this park gives us two free passes every other paycheck for family and friends.
Oh. Poor guy!
Sounds like a fun time (other than the fear of being smashed)! 😉
I love your remember whensday posts and as soon as i get back to Oregon and my photo albums I'm going to post some myself.
Camping with our kids are some of our favorite favorite memories (of theirs too I hope).
Sallie at home — wherever we park it
what a wonderful picture and remembrance.
Nice looking kids. Which one is the blogger?
That is one big rock. It looks a bit like Uluru in the centre of Australia. By the way you are welcome if you come to Australia.
Hey, thanks for posting such a lovely pic of us!
LceeL- Both girls are bloggers. 🙂
