Adventure Trip #3

This weekend was LC's fall break which meant it was time for the annual Adventure Trip! We left at 6am on Thursday and spent three nights camped out in the mountains of Tennessee. We always have a very diverse group of students go which makes for an entertaining trip. Thursday we traveled all day and then set up camp. My dad and Scotty have joined us the last two years to do all the cooking for us...what a blessing! Friday we went on a 6000 foot long zip line tour and then rafted the Ocoee River. Here is my sad confessions: #1 I grew up rafting the Ocoee and still get nervous every time #2 I'm apparently so out of shape that there isn't a muscle on my body that doesn't hurt right now. We had a blast though and watching my 67 year old dad zip line upside down was certainly one of my highlights this trip. On Saturday we went to the Chattanooga Zoo, ate at the Mellow Mushroom and went to the IMAX. We got an unplanned adventure because there was a blue grass festival and a paddle board race going on at the river front that we got to enjoy. And then came today...an early departure from camp to get back to Pineville at a decent time. We had gotten up, broken down camp and hit the road by 6:04am eastern time. Wowzers! We had an awesome trip though and pics to come soon.
