Ail aboard; Two trucks are ready
for the dormitory, boys and girls. By
two o'clock on Friday afternoon two
trucks and one Ford stood on the
campus of Chattahoochee High school
ready for the thrty boys and girls
who were all restless with eagerness
to get started toward the mountains.
On the front porch of theigirls’ dor
mitory could be seen’ mingled with
the girls, bags and blankets and box
es, ready for the word “go’.’, while
the boys somewhat more anxious
hail already carried their baggage
out into the yard ready for the
proper placing in the tuck.
Prof. Adams came hurrying from
his school-room work and the -girls
were all anxious with such ques
tions,"as “When do We go?” ‘‘Which
is. our truck .’?” etc.
All soon were comfortably seated
on the truck and on their way with
all necessary camping baggage. On
and on went the joyous trucks, fol
lowed by a Ford carrying chaperones
and eatables. We reached the foot,
of the mountain by dark but- our
high' spirits would not let us camp
there, so we continued for several
miles up the mountain side where we
found a suitable place to pitch
camp. Of all the.fun you can think of
we had it around that campfire-—

singing, playing games, telling ghost
stories, cooking, eating and trying
to sleep, the girls packed in the
trucks and the boys on the ground
around the fire.
All awoke early, contemplating a
great day climbing the' Blueridge
Mountains, and after partakng of oui
camp cooking we were on out way
up, up. ,up, with a full determination
of planting, our feet on the tip of
Blueridge for one time in life. Such
scenes we never had seen! High ridg
es on either side as we followed the !
winding road up the valley. On
e.-iehing the top we stood dazed at (
the-wonder of nature, even here in!
our own Georgia. As far as’ eye j
cou’.d see on all sides the valleys and i
ridges followed each other. As the j
road did not cross at the highest !
point'we were not satisfied until we j
had worked-our way up the rugged,,
rocky, wooded hillside to the highest j
peak within reach. -Now, our. eyes 1
were beholding nothing but ridge af- j
fer ridge in every direction. What !
a joy to behold? Now, we had surely
had a mountain top experience and
content to descend back to the camp.
The most ventursome ones wished
to take the straight but- steepest
and most rugged course down the
mountain side, and after many falls
and slides reached camp. ’
My! how we did eat. After re
freshments and g few hours rest we
left camp for home with the full sat
isfaction of having spent the time
well.
We reached our home campus late
in the day, hale, hungry and happy;
knowing full well that our first trip ’
to the top of Blue Ridge Mountains
would never fade from memory.
