Tennesee Adventure Part II

The second part of our Tennessee adventure was white water rafting!  It was such a blast.  We drove to the North Carolina/Tennessee border and rafted down the upper part of the Pigeon River.  Our guide, Nolan, at USA Rafts was so much fun!  The scenery was absolutely beautiful with the sun setting over the mountains during our trip downriver. 



Nolan, our guide, shows us his intense face!

Success!

Our Tennessee weekend was totally fun and has us hungry for more. We can't wait to get back out on the water! See you soon!

Tennessee Summer Adventure Part 1

We had an amazing Memorial Day weekend!  We took a trip up to Knoxville, TN to visit our friends, Matt and Kim.  Along with one of our Gainesville buddies, Michelle, and some new Knoxville friends, we had a blast tubing, whitewater rafting, hanging out, and eating delicious food.

First on the agenda, was a tubing trip in Townsend, Tennessee.






Relaxing...



Our mode of transportation, post tube ride



We had a lot of fun swinging from this rope and jumping off the rock



Party on the bus!

Geese!

It was an awesome morning! Stay tuned for Part II of our Tennessee adventure- White water rafting edition!

Thrifting and Exploring in Newberry, FL!

Our trivia team, The Tara Reid Boob Job Massacre, had a tournament at Newberry's Back Yard BBQ this afternoon so we decided to head into Newberry early to take in the town and hit the local thrift shops. We had a great time checking out this adorable little town, made some great buys at the shops, and didn't come in last at our trivia tournament. A great day!
One of local thrift shops we stopped at. This place was dense, it will definitely require a second trip. Pretty much all the clothes here are sold for $1.99 a pound!

We found this old red engine...

...and had to hop on board!

Shannon takes a peak at a local cake shop. Some very pretty cakes in here!

This is our haul from another thrift shop that featured five different buildings plus lots of goodies outside in the back yard area. Designer ties, cameras and cardigans, oh my!

Out back at the same shop the hangers seemed to go on forever!

Poe Springs Getaway!

After Jacob got up early for a round of golf we headed to Poe Springs in High Springs, FL. It was a gorgeous day so we brought a picnic and our adventuring hats! The spring was cool and inviting so we took a dip after lunch and explored the rocky areas where it emptied into the Santa Fe river. He also made a new dragonfly friend! A swell time was had by all!
