2011 EPIC SUMMER ADVENTURE!

We left on Saturday morning for our 2011 Summer Epic Adventure. It was a dreary morning but we were flush with anticipation at the onset of our trip. It took 5 hours to get to Gettysburg where we toured the battlefields where the Union held their ground against the Rebels. We had all just watched Jeff Daniels movie a few days prior so the details were fresh in our head. So cool. Amazing that NY was represented in every battle. GO New York!

We traveled on from there to the Staunton VA area to an awesome campground in Verona. The next morning we met our dear friends, the Jones' for breakfast! Complete with FRIED BOLOGNA (Clearly a southern thing!) It was a really sweet reunion as we haven't seen all 5 of these dear people in years.
After saying goodbye we headed to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee... we chose to stay in the Townsend area (the quieter side of the Smokies!) which was evidently a good thing. Had another GREAT campground, our site was right on a river that people tubed on... clearly we had to try that... and it was awesome! Had a rope swing right off our site... Krissy was the first to take a ride as we all did! Great time!
