Trip!

We finally got to go on a trip that didn't have anything to do with Craig's job. We decided to take the 5th Wheel to North Carolina for a few days. Craig spent a lot of time as a child in Maggie Valley with his paternal grandparents, so we chose to stay there.

Craig found a nice RV park where we could stay by the Johnathon Creek. It was a nice nice creek/river. The sound of running water and the serenity of the mountains all around us made for a very relaxing and wonderful time. We saw the sights, went mini-golfing, ate local fare, roasted marshmallows over a campfire, the kids played at the campground, Craig met all the neighbors, the guys fished, and I got to catch up on my reading and my DS games, plus I even got to go to the local Curves. All in all, it was AWESOME!

As we were returning home, Craig pulled into the camp area at Talullah Falls Gorge just to check it out and we ended up staying one more night there. If I had known we were going to camp one more night, I would have asked Craig to let us stay in North Carolina instead. Nothing against Talullah, it's just that my heart is in the mountains.

Peyty enjoyed throwing rocks in the creek.

Sadly, there are no pics of me, but that's OK.
