Much like Rachel from
and then, she {snapped}(which is from whence this "Wordless Wednesday" post came), I am pretty much incapable of going with completely wordless. I like words. How about I compromise and try to keep it short!
Josiah and I went to the mountains last weekend. We visited my parents, saw some beautiful scenery, played a lot, and just adventured through the countryside. Here are some highlights:
 |
| We're starting our Friday journey!! SO much better than work! |
|
|
 |
| It's a giant skate...in the middle of nowhere!!! |
 |
| Josiah at the ruins of an old mill in Harper's Ferry, WV...*sigh* I love that place |
 |
| Saint Peter's Roman Catholic Church...it was a picture of this beautiful old church that first brought us to Harper's Ferry. |
 |
| We took some time to lounge around and dip our feet in the Shenandoah River. |
 |
| In front of St. Peter's |
 |
| If you're ever on US 340 just outside of WV, you should TOTALLY eat at this place. The food is great and the atmosphere is so freaking neat it's unbelievable! |
 |
| And we stumble across a place in the middle of nowhere called Dinosaur Land. What?! A giant skate and now dinosaurs!! |
 |
| This is how big these concrete monsters were... |
 |
| Sunset on Skyline Drive...and A LOT of fog rolling in, which forced us to stop at Big Meadow Lodge... |
 |
| which is where we found this deer right outside the room early the next morning! |
 |
| My mom and I during our visit. It's rare that we actually get a picture together because one of us is almost always the picture taker. Thanks for doing the honors this time Josiah!! |
 |
| One of our last real stops. We ate at Frisby's Restaurant in Powhatan. The food was good, the server was really sweet, and it was reasonably priced! |

I had such a wonderful time on our adventure. It was so nice to be able to get away for a couple days with absolutely no schedule. I highly recommend it!
