What's a better marriage test than driving 5 hours, putting up a tent for the first time while having 30 minutes of daylight to do it in, not being able to shower for more than 48 hours, and living off of granola bars, hot dogs and pb&J?
Well, we're still married and living to tell about it! Ok, so it wasn't bad at all! Those things did happen but it was a GORGEOUS weekend in the NC Mountains. Next weekend is peak weekend but we were thrilled with the color that we saw. We ended up at Julian Price campground in Boone. For some strange reason it took us five hours to get there and 2 and a half to get back...hmmm.
We hiked around Julian Price Lake, took a rowboat out on the lake and had lunch, went to the Linville Caverns and rode around Banner Elk. We did cheat and ate dinner out on Saturday night.
Looks like fun! I remember when your parents took us camping in their pop up! They were living the good life compared to sleeping in a tent! Can't wait to see you soon!
