Grandfather Mountain and Primitive Camping

We spent the weekend in the mountains primitive camping (I can't believe I survived without electricity and water for an entire weekend lol). It was an awful lot of fun :) We went to Grandfather Mountain State Park on Saturday. We got to see the bears, otters, and several other animals while we were there. Addisyn ran around the park, ate some icecream, and then crashed right before we walked the mile-high swinging bridge :) Addisyn LOVES the outdoors. She kept finding leaves and flowers (she ate a few too). She loved walking the trails and just breathing in the fresh mountain air. We will definitely do this again with her soon. Here are some pictures from our adventure...

On one of the hiking trails Addisyn picked up some dead leaves in one hand and a beautiful red flower in the other hand...

Love,
Lindy, Brian, Addisyn, and Bear
