First trip to the Mountains

Last Saturday we decided to take a day trip to Blowing Rock. It was a beautiful clear day. It was slightly cooler up there than it was here in Lexington. We started with lunch at the Six Pence Pub. One of our favorite places to eat. After lunch we drove up the parkway to check out the views from the top of the mountains. Gosh, it was a beautiful day. We took a couple of pictures and the headed back to town. We decided to stop at Julian Price Park and let Cameron stretch his legs. We happen to have a towel in the car and an umbrella to create some shade. Cameron had a great time playing. I can't wait to go back and let him play in the creek that runs through the park. When my brother and I were younger, we would tie a string to a 20oz soda bottle and float it down the creek. It was simple, but fun. After feeding Cameron at the park we went to the Tanger Outlets for some shopping. This was our real reason to go. I needed some clothes to wear when I go back to work.

Ever wonder why they are called the Blue Ridge Mountains?

We created our own shade at Price Park

Cameron enjoyed the fresh mountain air.

Happy Bithday Nana!

Saturday we celebrated my Nana's 89th birthday! It was a wonderful day. The entire family was there. I don't have a copy yet of the picture of the entire family, but I do have one of Nana with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
