We took a day trip from Flanner’s to see some good friends that were on vacation in Emerald Isle. It’s about 45 minutes from point to point. I loved being able to connect with friends so soon after we left, it eased the sting of leaving just a tiny bit!
I never get tired of this kind of picture! Lead me to the water!

Thanksgiving 2017
What is Thanksgiving without friends or family? SADNESS. Sorry to be so dramatic. I knew that no matter WHAT we did for Thanksgiving- in the kids’ eyes, it would never, ever live up to our normal celebration (we usually host). At least I planned ahead. I figured that instead of trying to compete with their expectations, it would be better do something entirely different, something we wouldn’t normally do because we’re busy hosting.

Caverns That Are Endless
Endless Caverns (and Endless Caverns Campground) is named so because of the caverns that are right on site. With all the other stuff we did during the week, we almost missed all of our chances to see them. We made the very last tour on Friday, and we had an awesome tour guide.

Stop #15 – Freeport, ME
Crossing the border to Maine felt like a mini-victory. With so many changes to our plans (like having to go back to Christiansburg for the hitch work, having to stop for the tire debacle, etc.), making it to Maine by the time summer ended sometimes felt like a pipe dream.
You you Vikings!!! I’m living vicariously through you guys. Steve Frey here, your former neighbor. Gonna have fun travelling with you (in spirit of course). Keep me informed on where you’re going and how much fun you’re having.
Haha!! Thanks, Steve!!! We’re having a blast so far! We do miss the ‘hood though!
