Last month we went camping at Grindstone Campground in VA.  Once we got off the major highways, the scenery was BEAUTIFUL!  Mountains, rolling hills, picture perfect rivers and streams, it was lovely!  If I wasn't the one driving, I would have taken lots of pics on the way up.  I found lots of places where I was saying to myself "I could live here".  Makes me even more determined to move to Asheville some day...Or Washington State!

The camping group was a pretty good size, but due to threats of rain, many cancelled :(  We still had fun anyways, and I even remembered to take a few pictures.  None of them are great, but hey, at least I remembered to use it a few times, even though I lost my camera 20 times every day.

The kids played with this bug for the longest time then decided to take a picture of it to remember it forever
Despite the rain, we had a great time.  Can't wait till our next camping trip!

Glad you were able to go since you guys seem to love it so much. Looked cold but the kids were in flip flops or no shoes at all so it must have been kinda warm...

It was a blast! Love'd that it was a small group, fun to get to know you guys more. I need to email you the pictures I got from the weekend. Send me your email address. I also really like the pic of me and Jaymi, could you send that one to me? I to would love to live in the mountains, but the beach is so amazing too. Both, one day :)
