We spend an absolutely blissful weekend near Grayson Highlands State Park in Virginia. We returned to the same little cabin we had last year, which is just perfect for the four of us. It's nestled in the woods and has a great porch that is just meant for coffee sipping:
It also has a lovely creek for enjoying:
But the real draw is it's a ten minute drive from Grayson Highlands:
We spent Saturday morning and early afternoon hiking in beautiful 50 degree weather:
Evan got to do some tree climbing:
Issa enjoyed a much improved knee over last year (it was shortly after this trip that we started PT last year):
We hiked a little farther this year:
And we climbed a lot more rocks:
We also followed the pony trails rather than the main trails, and we were rewarded with some great views of the ponies:
Evan also found some great rocks in this stream:
Back at the cabin, we played two new games we picked up on the way. Salem requires some thought but is really fun:
Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza requires no thought but is super fun! It's a combo of BS, charades, and slap jack. Only minor blood was spilled; Issa's nail impaled Evan's palm. We ate cozy food and just enjoyed being together, and Sunday morning we woke up to snow flurries:
The temperature was in the high 20s, but the ninjas had to say goodbye to the creek:
I love these cozy weekends where we can get away for a bit!
