Blue Ridge Summer Vacation Fun

Nothing beats a vacation.  Serendiptiy on Noontootla Creek gave us more than that.  We've experienced raw nature, family, and food all at once!  

Food:  we shopped at Ingles, Mercier Orchards, Food Lion, and Walmart to stock our short week up w/ burgers, steaks, and chicken on the BBQ.  

Adventure:  went rafting on the Toccoa River with the pink tube company - (very organized)!  Take a water camera!  Also, rode the Blue Ridge Scenic Railroad and straddled the GA-TN state line in McCaysville.  Stopped in Pat's Country Kitchen.  My father brought his Harley so we did a few trips in the car behind him to take video.

It rained 2 days here, one of them we took a day trip to Atlanta to the Aquarium.  One day we fished in the creek and ended every day in the hot tub!  Downtown Blue Ridge is great.  Didn't get to have dinner, but lunch was good at Harvest on Main.  Also, try Angelina's - it's awesome!

Hikes:  we took 2 hiking trips.  One was at Springer Mountain, the base of the Appalachian Trail.  The other hike was Fall Branch Falls - beautiful!  Took our Christmas card pictures there.

Great times at Serendipity ~ "The Cuban Crew"
