NewYears week vacation

This year we did a mountain vacation. We met Mom and Dad unfortunately Suzy had to work in the middle of the week. We broke the ride up by stopping in Savannah and visiting with Will and family. The Bobbitt's let us use their cabin which is between Lenoir, NC and Boone, NC. I cannot put in words how remote but full of every feature you need (with the exception of direct internet). Three sleeping areas, beds for 10+ full kitchen, game room and wrap around porch.


We learned the day before we left that an ice storm left a lot of people without power near the cabin. We were able to get through to the cabin's answering machine so we pushed ahead. The secondary roads were not plowed. We pulled Dad's van into an unused driveway and used the FJ as a ferry back and forth to the cabin.








Once settled in we enjoyed ourselves. We enjoyed the cabin view, the town of Boone and snow skiing at Sugar Mountain.

Our big debate, which side is the front? The side facing the road or valley?

We departed the cabin on New Years and drove to Atlanta to see John and family. On the way down Chance rode his bike up and down into "Happy Valley".
