Backpacking

Every year, twice a year, since we moved here, a group of women go backpacking. It's usually at a different place each time. They leave Friday at noon and come back late afternoon on Saturday. I've always wanted to go. But, each time, something came up...being pregnant, having an infant, Bart traveling... So, as our time is drawing to a close here, I knew I needed to find a way to go. So, Bart and I got his traveling schedule worked out so he could come home for a couple of days so I could go! Yipee!! It was SO wonderful! There were 7 of us that went and it was an amazing time. We drove three hours to get to Lexington, hiking Cold Mountain and Mt. Pleasant. The scenery breathtaking, the women incredible, hard but worth it. I came back feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Love these ladies! Thank you, Bart, for helping it happen!
