Reviews of Granny Burrell Falls
"Love coming to panthertown with our Australian Shepard puppy"
"To days hike took me to a waterfall that is probably not on anyone's bucket list. It's a small soft flowing waterfall nothing fancy, so you may ask why would you go to this one. I took this one for the namesake granny Burrell Falls. You see one of the most influential people that has ever came into my life was my great granny Burrell. She had a love inside that was as close to standing face to face with Jesus as anyone I have ever met. How the world could learn so much from the love she had and shared. This little set of falls brought back so many memories of her this morning. And the Legacy that lives on even today many years after her passing and the lessons that could never be learned in school lessons about hard work, loyalty, and most importantly loving one another and having a forgiving heart. I've never known her to find fault in anyone she always found the good regardless of who it was she would just say we just got to love them like Jesus. A lot of who I am today can be traced back to my granny Burrell you see she planted seeds in her kids that intern planet seeds in their kids who in turn planted seeds in me and so many others. So if you reading this today you think what's the point the generations after you is the point let your legacy be something more."
