The temperatures dropped. Hitting the trails was # 1 on our To Do List last week.

I’ve been not-so-patiently waiting for this.

Anyone else tired of sweating + not being able to breathe in the 1,000% humidity? Seriously. Hurry up Fall!!

We love getting lost in the woods at Paris Mountain State Park. Both Mountain Creek + Lake Placid trails are super easy and enjoyable for everyone.

PSA: the bridge at the dam (or the dam bridge 😆) has been refurbished and looks great!

I have no idea if these temps are here to stay, but go ahead and sign us up for alllll the outdoor adventures!

OTHER DESTINATIONS ON OUR FALL FIELD TRIP BUCKET LIST:

Carl Sandburg Home. I heard through the social media grapevine that the gate to the goats is officially open. I’ve not told JP – he’ll pass out! The home is a very short drive from Greenville + the grounds are breathtaking. Plus, pick up a bottled Coke from the Wrinkled Egg on the way out! 😍

Pisgah National Forest. The trails. The waterfalls. The tallest trees I’ve ever seen. Need I say more?

Chimney Rock. Gem mining, here we come!

Sky Top Apple Orchard. Is it even Fall if you’ve not been apple picking? Oh, and helloooo apple cider slushees! 🍎🙌

Biltmore Estates. Probably the most important one. Our passes have been burning a hole in my purse. We basically visited the house once.😏 Covid hit shortly after and life went down hill from there. The many trails, gardens, restaurants, and shops are calling my name!!

These are only a few things I’m looking forward to experiencing over the next few months!

Happy Labor Day, y’all!
