Turners Table & Ferne Cliff

2/22/2023

  Lisa suggested Turners Table for breakfast on Monday and I'm not one to turn down going out for breakfast so off we went.
I got two eggs over easy, sausage, hash browns and a biscuit.  Lisa got two eggs sunny side up, bacon, biscuit and a side of gravy.  Her order came with hash browns but she said she didn't want any.  For some reason the hash browns sounded good so I told her to go ahead and get that too.
The sausage was a premade patty and was slightly overcooked but Lisa's bacon looked great and she said it was real good.  Both eggs were cooked correctly and were good. We both used Lisa's gravy on our biscuits and it was also solid.  The star of the show was the hash browns, Lisa even ate some of hers after she didn't want any.  
We both agreed it was one of the better breakfasts we've had in a restaurant lately.

After we left there we went to the beer store and then home where we changed into our hiking shoes.  We decided on Giant City nature trail but on the way over I said let's go to Ferne Cliff instead.  I hadn't really looked at how to get there but thought it was close to Lick Creek so we went down through AJ and took the round about way to get there.  Not a bad choice on a great February day.
We finally got there and I wanted to see the waterfall so we found the waterfall trail and parked in the camping area.  The trail was down hill and had some mud places, roots, logs, etc on the trail.  There were periodic signs showing which way to go but at some point we got off the trail.  I think we went down lower when we should have went higher but I'm not sure.  Not a big deal because we'd seen a rocked trail on the other side of a creek.  The creek wasn't very deep so we just crossed over and got on the other trail which took us right to the waterfall. 
The waterfall was coming over some and was awesome to see.  I'd like to go back after a big rain and check it out.  We spent a little time there and decided to take the trail back instead of trying to find our original trail.  It was a nice trail and there were quite a few people out and about.  It took us back to a different parking lot where there were several other trails branching out.
We took off on the heel toe express and started back to where we hoped our parking lot was.  Little did we know our parking lot was quite a bit away and that the road was a steep incline.  A little ways up and the heel toe express became the heel toe and rest slowpoke. 
Later I check and the map said it was 1.7 miles but I say bullshit,  It was closer to 2.5 miles or more.  Needless to say we'd both had all we wanted and headed home.
