Cashiers NC Family Vacation, Part 4

admin — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 13:15:02 +0000

On the way home, we stopped in Flat Rock to visit Sky Top Orchard. The name is fitting, to be certain, as we drove straight up the mountain (with our check engine light still on). While most of the apples had already fallen, we were still able to have a great time roaming the orchard and looking at the farm animals. Before we left, we bought lots of Pink Lady apples, freshly baked apple cinnamon doughnuts, and apple pie fudge. What a great way to end our vacation!

Cashiers NC Family Vacation, Part 3

admin — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 13:14:57 +0000

On the last day of vacation, we decided that Nola should try a hike it on her own two feet. Silver Run Falls is a favorite of ours and was perfect for this because it was so close to the cabin and is a short hike. The rest of the day was spent in downtown Cashiers taking in all of the unique consignment shops and gift stores. Nola also had a chance to explore Village Play…a massive playground in the town square. Also below is a shot of Cornucopia which is our favorite place to eat.

Cashiers NC Family Vacation, Part 2

admin — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 13:12:53 +0000

When we went to Highlands in the spring, we passed the Cashiers Farmers Market and both loved how it looked. This time we were able to stop, go in, and enjoy their BBQ and cornbread. Nola loved the carved bears and the owner’s dog that slept on the front porch. Down below, you also see pictures of our second day hiking. We went to Gorges State Park and decided to hike to Rainbow Falls. The first part of the hike was surprisingly easy until, well, it wasn’t. I didn’t think we would ever back to our car. Anyhow, Nola saw several people hiking with sticks, so once she was out of the Kelty, she found herself a hiking stick and I believe would have hiked down the mountain by herself if we would have let her. The following day, we drove up a beautiful mountain to hike Panthertown Valley. This was the most remote hiking spot we visited while on this trip…the parking lot was the shoulder of the gravel road. On the way to this hike, we came across a Christmas Tree farm and some of the trees were already tagged and ready to go.

Cashiers NC Family Vacation, Part 1

admin — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 13:07:06 +0000

A few weeks ago we took a family vacation to Cashiers, NC. If you know us, you know that we love the mountains, that we love hiking, and that we love staying in smaller, out-of-the-way towns. We took off on the only free days I had left in October and just barely missed the peak with the Fall leaves. But since we are from Wilmington, we didn’t mind much! We decided to stay in Cashiers, because, like Highlands (where we went in May), there are a lot of waterfall hikes within short driving distances. We broke up the trip a little bit by staying the first night in Brevard, NC so we could enjoy Dupont State Forest. This park is still under construction somewhat, but is already impressive. We hiked, but there were also people mountain biking and horseback riding on the trails. When we arrived in Cashiers, we had a bumpy start. Our house rental lost heat the first night, and then the whole mountain lost power the next day. Then a few hours later, our check engine light come on in the car. But…we didn’t let those things keep us down! The house rental (found on VRBO.com) was comfy with a wrap-around porch and satellite TV. The latter was a real treat for Nola…she promptly fell in-love with Olivia and The Backyardigans.

The Mixons have been friends of ours for several years now. I shot them in front of Blue Post back when their oldest was a just a toddler. It is so cool to watch their family grow!
