Oh what a day! Yesterday was such a delight. Two trips now to North Carolina and I hadn't yet visited the Blue Ridge Parkway until yesterday. I'm so glad we spent the day driving, hiking, and exploring in the capable and generous care of Glenn, Ashley and Huxley English. Glenn shared some of their favorite spots with us, crafted a beautiful picnic for us on the top of Black Balsam, and drove so that I could truly take it all in. What a special and beautiful part of the world this is - the view from every spot along the way so dramatic.
As you might imagine, running free was exactly what Harper needed after a weekend fairly limited to a 30x40 tent space. It was apparently what I needed too. Thank you to our friends for making it happen!
And now we make our way towards home. I'm ready for that too!
