Outdoor Adventures!

I’ve always wanted to try kayaking but have always been too nervous to try. Well, our friend Faye wouldn’t take no for an answer so while Melissa was at work I conquered a fear.

And found a new love.

Faye’s boyfriend went on a fishing trip with a buddy so we took Faye on a hiking trip! We visited John Bryan State Park and explored Yellow Springs after. Then we went and had ice cream at Young’s Jersey Dairy.

It was an amazing day!

  • This is my happy place.

West Virginia, I am in love with you!
Rusty wanted to get one last look at our cabin before we left.
The boys are ready for our next adventure: Black Water Falls!
Melissa used to come to Black Water Falls with her grandparents when she was a little girl.
It was beautiful
