Breesin'

One of the many things that I have to check off my App State bucket list is to hike on every trail in Boone. Luckily, I got to check Rough Ridge off my list today! The youth group at the Church of St. Luke's planned a hiking trip & they counted me in. Hopefully, GiGi will be able to come with me next time.
The hike to the top took about 40 minutes. After slipping a couple of times & running into a few branches, we finally got to the top. The view was totally worth the hike! The trees looked like small blades of grass. The scenery looked as if someone woke up at some ungodly hour in the morning & painted the blue mountain range.

If you ask me, I'd say that hiking down a mountain is much more difficult than hiking up. I think we all slipped a couple of times. 

For lunch, we decided to go to The Come Back Shack. Everyone told me that this place is famous for their burgers & their fries. I got a hula burger, which had mustard, pineapples, & bacon added to it. Nick ordered fries dipped in cheddar cheese & ranch with bacon bits. My jaw dropped when Nick opened the box of fries. If you ask me, I'd say "Diabetes" is that dish's middle name.

& that's a wrap up for a great weekend, until next time!
