We went up Thursday night so we could have all day Friday up there too and that just made the weekend even longer and even better! We rode up with our buddy Todd and his pup Wrigley.
Friday morning, we got our day started with breakfast at the Sunrise Grill before hitting up Blowing Rock.
We took a little detour to Moses Cone Memorial Park and then went back into Boone to meet other friends and have lunch at Black Cat Burrito before walking around App State.
We eventually made our way to our cabin and unpacked.
We went back into Boone for dinner at Proper (yumm) and then spent some time shopping on W King Street before heading back to the cabin for the evening.
Saturday morning the guys woke up at the crack of dawn and drove to a lookout to watch the sunrise.
They returned and we ate a great breakfast and packed a picnic lunch and headed out for Grandfather Mountain State Park.
We viewed the animals before going up to the mile high swinging bridge.
After our lunch, we went over to Rough Ridge Lookout for another hike and took turns hanging off this crazy rock.
Then it was time for a treat, so we drove into Blowing Rock and spent some time shopping and getting coffee and ice cream.
We had delicious lasagna for dinner at the cabin.
Sunday morning we ate breakfast and headed over to E.B. Jeffress Park for a little waterfall hike.
Then we drove up to Howard's Knob Park to have lunch.
We spent the afternoon in the small town of Todd.
We all went back to the cabin and the girls spent some time hanging by the fire and chatting while the guys went to go play down the street in a creek.
Dinner was tacos.
Monday morning, we had to pack it all up and hit the road back home. So sad, but great to have a nice weekend with friends exploring a new spot! I hope we can do it all again next year!
