Enjoy the Photo-Dump (:

Friends, here are a few pictures since we haven't been able to add any since Gatlinburg, TN. These start in the Smokies and go through Hot Springs, NC.

  2. We've gotta go back to Max Patch with the gang when y'all return......and feel up for a hike again ;) Love love love y'all and miss you two so very much! As for us, I'm studying like a mad-woman (Mc, this RD exam is going to be the death of me...EVERYTHING we learned plus gobs more on one dang test!) and Mike's staying busy with odd jobs around home. We're finishing up the final gearing up for our trip and getting more and more excited! We did backpack this past weekend up in Panthertown, and if y'all haven't been already we'll have to repeat that one too and hang while y'all do some climbing! Its pretty sick so get excited! Much love and prayers your way...keep on keeping on!
