We're really not going to be able to detail all of our adventures so far this summer, but the most obvious reason is because we moved to Asheville, NC. This is home to the beautiful smoky mountains, the Biltmore Estate, and a whole lot of cool.
We're really enjoying our first summer here full-time. We had a lot of motivation for moving, including job opportunities lining up for the both of us. It's a smaller market, which presents challenges of its own, but as far as places to live go, it's consistently ranked in the top ten in the nation.
Our first official visitor was Daniel, so that was good to have family come and stay with us. We actually met up at the Great Smoky Mountain National Park to go hiking, which was, of course, lovely. We also met Daniel's gf, Brooke. She seemed great, and we really enjoyed the family. Pictures of the hiking and of Daniel at our house are below:
We also then had Sarah & Tyler come stay for the fourth of July weekend, but not before Megan and I snuck off to Montreat to enjoy their 4th of July celebrations. It was extremely small town but really fun.
Once Sarah & Tyler arrived, we picked blueberries and took them hiking up Looking Glass peak. That's always a stunning view, but the 6.2 mile hike can actually be quite tiresome!
Last but not least, my good old friend Chris Shute came on down from Kentucky and hung out with us. It's been very nice having so many people to come support us being here in a new town. Adios!
