So I am sure that JJ thinks I forgot about these photos but oh contrare. Did you ever think you’d see him sporting a unicorn? Never say never.

Earlier this summer we snuck out of town for a long weekend to Asheville. My parents kept the kids while we headed to the mountains. We planned an eventful weekend to tackle some things on the bucket list – white water rafting, and ziplining. So while working up the courage Friday night, we had a good meal in downtown Asheville, listened and watched the festivities at the drum festival, and got a little silly ourselves – aren’t I glad that I’m the one behind the lens.

The next morning, bright and early, we headed to the French Broad for a little white water rafting, followed by ziplining in the afternoon. I wasn’t brave enough to take a camera (I wanted both arms focused on keeping me in the raft/or making it from tree canopy to canopy) but I have most assuredly survived to tell about it. So that’s a good thing (oh and we had fun too!).

This is how I am sure JJ really feels about me posting these pictures.
