Howdy from the blue ridge mountains! It’s nearly the end of vacation, and though I’ve tried to stay away from blogging a bit, I can’t help myself but to blog once more from vacation. We’re at the folk art center and discussing the correlation between crazy hair and eccentricity, and the ability to sell random arts and crafts.

We’re planning on driving south on the Parkway to Mount Pishah later and checking out some more mountains and waterfalls and such. Saturday we head home to begin school and such.

How has your summer been? Have you taken the time to relax and get ready for the year ahead? It’s good to be productive, but it’s also important to relax and catch up on sleep.

Take care,

Colin

Finally the summer end is here and we are off for a week in the North Carolina mountains! I’m looking forward to sleeping in, reading, and enjoying the outdoors. Can’t wait to get some photography in.

We will be just east of Asheville in Old Fort - we rented a house on the top of the mountain for the week. We’ll have some great sunsets to look forward to. And I just found out that we’ll be at the mountain house during the perseid meteor shower…. So we should have some great opportunities to shoot some sweet pictures of that. In addition, I brought my flash equipment so I hope to have some sweet pictures of the family and such.

I have several books with me… War of Words, Campus CEO, and Naked Conversations, a book on corporate blogging. I’ll post some pictures as I take them throughout the week.

We’re in Franklin, NC at the Motor Company Grill. Time for some great American food. I’m in and out of cell coverage so i’ll blog when I can.

Take care, y’all.

Colin
