Wilson's Creek











On Friday we took a family day trip to Wilson's creek. Scott and I used to go up there before the kids and now they are old enough to go with us so we said lets go. This is one of my favorite things to go and do. Well, we started out and we get to Hudson and it is starting to rain. Yuck but we continue on. That was the first bad sign. We get there and it is gorgeous as always even with the rain. We snap off the above pics and my most brillant hubbie decides to take a pic of the beautiful water and scenery and goes down the steps. The boys and I stay in the turd and he never comes back. I get out to look and listen. Nothing. A few minutes later here he comes with this awful look. The crazy thing fell on a rock, broke the camera, and got scrapes and a huge bruise/strawberry on his butt cheek. Bad sign #2. I laughed and he will never live it down. The kids fell asleep and we saw turkeys. One was solid white. Too bad the camera broke. So we hit 181 and go towards Blowing Rock since it is raining and we didn't get to explore. It becomes so foggy we can't see anything in front of us. We ended up going to the Mast General Store, a bike shop and shops on the Parkway. In the end we all had fun but it just wasn't what we thought the day would entail.
