The Great Outdoors

Headed to Boone on Sunday to hike up Snake Mountain in Meat Camp (yes this is really the town's name).  Worth has been wanting to hike up this mountain in all the time I have known him, we decided Sunday would be the day.  Ben, Worth's cousin, and his girlfriend, Nicole came along.  This hike did not disappoint.  The weather was insane with how perfect it was.  I took 176 pictures.  It was near impossible to only pick 12 to post today.  BellaRose did amazing.  She only slept for about 20 minutes and that was on Worth's back in a very crooked backpack!  We, of course, had to hit up some Boone Bagelry while we were there.  This is one of our favorite places.  Who knew that a toasted blueberry bagel and a scrambled egg could taste so good.  I will leave you with the pictures.  This is really where the saying "A picture is worth a thousand words" really is true.  If you want to see more I have an album up on facebook and will be making a kodak gallery album soon.  enjoy!
