The Waterfalls of No Existance

Yesterday, Shawn, Hannah, Kristen, Lindsey, Jen, and I all went up to Table Rock to hike to the waterfalls. When we got there, everyone gave there phone to Lindsey, who kept a gym bag with water and other various items. When we started hiking, we realized that everyone had been to the waterfalls plenty of time to know where it was, so Shawn, Hannah, and I took off jogging to get a head start. We stop about 3 minutes from the waterfalls(the waterfalls are in sight), and wait for the other three girls to catch up. About 15 minutes pass and we get no answer. So we hike back down and discover that they not only aren't on the trail, but that they have been hiking for an hour on the wrong trail heading the other direction(keep in mind that it is KRISTEN, JEN, AND LINDSEY). We call them on Shawn's phone, which was left in the car in case of an emergency, and tell them to turn around and that Shawn and I would go get them. Hannah stayed at the cars for fear of an allergic reaction to something in the woods. We start running up the hill, and get about 30 minutes in and find the girls. They honestly thought that they were headed to the waterfalls. At this point, me and Shawn have our shirts off, we are drained off all our energy, and Hannah has been sitting at the cars with an minor allergic reaction to something, by herself for half an hour. We get back to the cars, head back to our house, and watch a movie, never once accomplishing our goal of going to the waterfalls.


Moral of the story: Don't hike with girls!
