Post Wedding Trip to West Virginia

So, this is a really late post - and, I am sure
that those of you reading this either were
there or have already heard the stories,
but.......
 
 
Adam and LeAnna invited us to join them in
Summerville for a few days.  It was fun to
revisit a place where the boys spent so
much time and had so much fun.
 
 
 
Eleftheria and Mackenzie are standing on the back deck of
our cabin in the woods. The view was spectacular. 


 Ian and Eleftheria relax inside.  It was really cute inside.  It would
be fun to be there in the winter and get to use the fireplace and
watch the snow fall out the picture window.


 
There was a cool fire pit in the front yard, but it was too wet
to use - like at home, the weather had been out of
the ordinary.
 

 We went on this crazy hike. The activity book in the
cabin indicated a short, easy hike through the woods
to the lake.  I guess everything is relative.



 
But, we eventually got there and had a very nice swim in
Summerville Lake.


Not exactly the Mediterranean Sea, but still.... 




 
LeAnna's parents rolled in and we all eventually got
seats at our favorite breakfast spot - Cathedral Café ~


 
 
 ~ a "repurposed" church with beautiful windows and great breakfasts & coffee.


 
...followed by another favorite hike.  In the background
is the New River Gorge Bridge.



 
It is the longest suspension bridge in the western hemisphere - the site of
Bridge Day, when (crazy) people, (sorry Sarah) base jump off the bridge.
 
 
Thanks, so much, Adam and LeAnna for inviting us and even allowing us to decide
to come at the last minute.  We had a great time and we love you so.

  1. A first reading by my best critic brings 2 corrections:
    *we were at Summersville Lake
    and
    *the bridge is an arch bridge, which Ian had already told me and I STILL got it wrong!
