What we did last Sunday was far different from this Sunday. I sought out a hike from the NC Wildflower Hike book. This happened to be a trail that I had never heard about before. The sad part is, that’s it’s less than a 10 minute drive from our home, in Blowing Rock, NC. It […]

California : Big Sur : Limekiln State Park To Limekiln Falls we go…… While making our big-time plans for Big Sur, I was dead set on camping at Limekiln State Park. But due to unforeseen events, this was not possible. Upon arriving at the State Park to go hiking one day, I quickly realized that […]

We were thrown […]

Falling BehindThese photos are from our hike last weekend. We found it in my North Carolina Waterfalls: A Hiking and Photography Guide. According to the person who wrote the guide, this waterfall may not be worth the 2.9 mile hike you have to endure in order to get there. We thought it was pretty mild […]

This past Saturday, we went for a nearly 5 mile hike on ‘Boone Fork Trail’. The weather wasn’t the most motivating, as it was overcast the entire time. We decided to take the trail backwards, unlike the way that most folks go, we headed straight instead of taking the immediate right at the trailhead. My […]
