We decided that since it was such a beautiful day that we would take a short trip. After church service we came home, changed our clothes, took the top off the jeep and away we went.
Our plans was to drive into the mountains and stop to Visit Grandfather Mountain. Little did we know that hundreds (and I mean hundreds) of other people had the same idea. Before we got anywhere close to the entrance we were stopped in traffic. Vehicles as far as we could see crawling their way toward Grandfather Mountain. Should we go on and wait our turn or just give up and come another day? We debated this question between us then hubby and I decided to hang tight. As we moved at a snail's pace up the mountain many of our traveling companions began to give up. Vehicles made u turns and headed back but we stayed. And we were so glad!
The mountain was crowded with others wanting to enjoy the beauty at Grandfather but we had a great time. We went to the swinging bridge, toured the museum and visited the animals.
We were tired but a good tired. The feeling you have when you have enjoyed a great day. :)
