Someday I Will Return and Burn Everything Down

Grey and I went backpacking in western Virginia. This was Grey's first time hiking on the Appalachian Trail so it needed to be documented.


We started out in Damascus, VA on the Virginia Creeper Trail.




There were lots of fun fungi to observe.




It had been raining a bunch so everything was nice and green. Rain is great for color but bad if you want to have a fire at night.


Unfortunately, it was too early in the season for the leaves to begin to change.


Emily and Galen got married on a rainy afternoon on a farm outside of Pittsboro.


The rain stopped long enough for the ceremonial first toss on the wedding cornhole set.

Look at those cute cornhole bags.


Just like most things dorky, I'm pretty good at cornhole.
