Caesar's Head

Thomas took his first trip to the mountains of South Carolina in October.  These mountains are especially special to Trey and I - Trey proposed to me 5 years ago at the top of Table Rock - so we were very excited to take Thomas.  We stayed in the Naber's house just down the road from Caesar's Head and enjoyed a gorgeous view of the mountains and beautiful fall foliage.  Of course, it rained about 75% of the time we were there but we were able to get in a few hikes to see waterfalls.  On our first day, we went to Caesar's Head and hiked the short trail to actually view the "head".  I place that in quotes because I never did see a head or face in the rock.  We ate at a small Mexican restaurant between Caesar's Head and Brevard.  Interestingly, the weekend Trey and I got engaged we ate at this same location but it was a different restaurant called The Raintree.
View from Caesar's Head.  That's Table Rock in the distance!



On the second day there, we visited Pretty Place and then ventured into Dupont Park to hike 2 waterfall trails.  Thomas managed to take a nap on Trey's shoulder during the hike but did wake up to see the waterfalls!  We ate dinner at an incredible pizza place in Brevard and ate some good old Sonic ice cream for dessert.  On the third day, it was so windy, foggy, and rainy that we decided it was time to hit the road!
