when shannon and chris arrived we went to dinner at the smokey mountain brewery. the food was just alright but the beer was great.
saturday we got up and headed to cade's cove, where we were able to spot several white tailed deer and turkey. after lunch we hiked up to grotto falls. it was a great hike and we also saw a black bear on the way up.
thank you all for your sweet comments and encouragement about my last post. i hadn't heard of post marathon blues but i'd say i've got all the symptoms! it's nice to know i'm not the only one who's ever been through it, and hopefully i'll get back to my 'normal' soon!
what a fun and fantastic getaway!! Love the pics, too!! so blessed to have such amazing friends -- hope there are many more trips in your guys future:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place for a getaway! It was probably exactly what you needed :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great time, I have always wanted to go there and see the Smoky Mountains. Looks like chicken soup for the soul :)
ReplyDeleteThose mountains are beautiful aren't they!? The greens with the blue sky are super pretty. Ok, so out of all the pretty pics, I have to ask, what kind of shoes are you wearing in the one of you and Brad at the falls? The blue with the bright yellow? Those are awesome looking!
ReplyDeleteGlad I could help. I read an article about the blues after my first marathon and knew I had a case of the "what nows?"
Sounds like this is just what you needed:) What a great weekend! I enjoyed all the pics you posted on Instagram during your vacay:)
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. It looks like a fun weekend away. I hope that you are feeling better about things soon.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a really fun weekend!
