I had an awesome day yesterday and soo I'm going to blog about it! First of all, I actually got to sleep in! It's been soo long since I got to do that. Sleeping in for me is sleeping in until 8:30 and it felt amazing. Then, I spent the morning being lazy and I finished the book that I've been reading (Insurgent). After that, I picked three of my friends up and we went up on the parkway to go hiking. We never found the hike that we were actually looking for, so we did the basic Rough Ridge hike. I've done it at least 5 times now, but somehow I don't get tired of it. The mountains are beautiful and the infamous rock is cool, even though it's no where near as high as it seems in all the pictures. The weather was perfect: sunny, not too hot, not too cold, with a slight breeze. We sat up on the rock and just talked and laughed for an hour or so. After that, we hiked back down and went to Town Tavern in Blowing Rock. We weren't that hungry so we got a bunch of yummy appetizers to share and we sat out on the deck. Then we got Kilwin's and walked around the little shops in Blowing Rock.
It was honestly one of the best days I've had in a while and it was exactly what I needed. Sunshine, good friends, and good food might actually be the cure for just about anything. I realized that those are the days that I will cherish the most when I think back someday about being in undergrad at App State.
