Camping with the Family
07/31/08 12:07 PM
Almost three days with no phone, no tv, and no internet. . . and I survived! Actually, I didn’t miss any of them. It was really good to get away for a couple of days and just kick back with the family. We had a fantastic time together. One of the (many) highlights for me was simply sitting around the fire together – coffee and conversation. . . what’s not to love!
The scenery along the Virginia Creeper trail was spectacular. After biking through one valley, I stopped and took four or five pictures of the landscape from left to right. I was able to merge them together in Photoshop for a single wide angle shot of the valley. On the way home yesterday, we stopped at Grayson Highlands State Park. We hiked the Twin Pinacles trail on Haw Orchard Mountain, a beautiful loop connecting the park’s two highest peaks – Little Pinnacle (5,089 feet) and Big Pinnacle (5,068 feet).
Here are some pictures and videos of our adventures.
