New Blog

So, I have been sending out mass emails for over a year now, documenting our travels, and have finally decided that maybe this would a better outlet for that. We will see how it works, I will try to post our pictures on here as well. Any feedback would be great!

So we have been living in Hickory, NC for about 3 weeks now. I don't think it was what either of us had in mind when we signed on. Although we should have had an idea, when talking to other people the only thing they could associate with Hickory was furniture! So far we have already made 2 road trips, one Blowing Rock, where we attempted to ski, we weren't entirely successful as it was the last day of the season and very icy. Nash is determined to make this his new hobby, too bad he will have to wait another year to go again. Last weekend we went to Chimney Rock near Asheville. It was a nice hike with lots of stairs that took us to the top of a beautiful waterfall. This weekend we decided to stay in town and experience Hickory. Last night we went to the Hickory Motor Speedway, "Where Nascar Stars are Born". It was actually really fun, I think Nash enjoyed it because of the crashes. It may become our favorite Saturday night activity!

Next weekend we are looking forward to our first visitors. Nash's family will be coming to visit and we are very excited. We haven't set our itinerary yet, but I am sure we will have alot of fun!

Well this is the end of my first blog...come back often!

love, kelly
