camping

this week we are in tennessee on vacation with jarred's family. and on our way here jarred and i escaped away for a night of our own. and we went....CAMPING! and if you know me AT ALL you know how shocking this is for me. jarred told me he would wean me into camping with just one night to make sure that i had a good experience. and you know what, i did. we got to pisgah national forrest and first hiked 3 miles up to looking glass rock in an hour and fifteen minutes.

since this storm was headed our way we quickly headed back down.

we headed to the campsite at daniel's ridge that jarred had picked out and set up camp. thanks to kat and rusty we had lots of camping gear, including this great tent:

then we headed out into the woods to collect wood for the fire. i'm serious. here is jarred chopping up the wood:

happy man after he got the fire going:

cooking hot dogs over the fire:

the next morning before we headed out, we hiked just a bit up to this awesome waterfall:
