Smalls Falls





























Today, we had a really long trip for a really awesome field trip. We went to Smalls Falls, which is up and over near Rangely, Maine. We drove through Farmington, Weld, Strong, Avon, and Phillips to get there. One there, we alked up the trail (kinda) and found the perfect hole for swimming. The water was cold! But that is what you get when it comes straight from the mountain! The Sandy river twists it's way down through the falls and comes to a rest at the bottom with a nice swimming spot for younger kids, and a fifty foot cliff that people were jumping from into the pool below. It was scary to watch them jump - it really got the adrenaline going in everyone who was watching! We had a nice lunch and some s'mores and then went in the water again. We drove the two hours to get home and Mr. Ivey drove everyone to their doorsteps! What a great day!
