Brevard

We were not able to really celebrate our anniversary on the actual day, but we got away to the mountains on Saturday while my in-laws kept S. We went to Brevard and had a great time! We did a bit of hiking(saw a snake - YUCK!!!!!), ate dinner, enjoyed some ice cream, sat down by the river and stopped at Bald Rock on the way home. Before S was born, we camped a lot up in Brevard and loved the chance to get back up there!

The Cradle of Forestry has some nice paved trails with some history added in. M LOVES to read every single plaque so this took quite a bit of time:)

Every time we are in Brevard, we try to eat at the Pisgah Fish Camp. It is so good!

And, of course, a long time favorite is Dolly's ice cream! We ate it down by the river and watched as the tubers came by! Next time we are up there, we plan to get some tubing in as well:)

Bald Rock was beautiful! One of our first dates in college was a mountain day trip with a treat of ice cream on Bald Rock. I should mention that we didn't start dating until January. A VERY cold time of year to be eating ice cream outside in the mountains. We were freezing!!!! We won't soon forget that date, though:)
