Sliding Rock, Asheville NC

Ok, sliding down a waterfall in late October might not be everyone's idea of fun, but why not??!!



We decided to go to Sliding Rock and although it was only 65 degrees outside and the water was in the 50's, we jumped in and slid down!


Never let it be said that the Bennett or the Sloan families pass by an any opportunity!

LEAF Festival

What a great time we had at the LEAF Festival! We got to see old friends and meet new ones, enjoy all the music and arts, learned to hula hoop, hang out around the campfire, be in a parade, and just generally chill and relax!

Cape Hatteras, Outer Banks, NC - by Abby

It was rainy and windy when we got to the Outer Banks. The wind was so much that you could actually fly! My dog Jewels, when we got to the top of the dune for ocean, she really flew! We couldn't even get to the ocean the first day because it was so windy and the sand was blowing so hard. There was a flood the next day - and oh my golly! it was big time windy and rainy, even more than yesterday, which was not so bad. We thought we were going to tip over in our camper when the wind was blowing so hard. We got to go down to the ocean today because the wind was coming from the other side and the sand wasn't blowing in our faces. The ocean waves were soooo big! They were about taller than my dad, which he is like 11 feet tall, and much, much taller than me cause I'm only 4 feet long! The waves were so totally awesome! The roads were closed from flooding and it was too windy to leave, so we had to stay here another night.
