I had an awful day that day…all I remember is crying to my parents, all day(for two reasons-a class and my learning disability which resulted after the class situation…and eating cupcakes...mmm mmm...and renting movie that make me smile(sky high and flicka)
on my second try to leave athens it was smooth and early...left at 743
it was a nice drive and i took it easy and looked at the beautiful landscaped with the fog coming off the mountain and hovering to where you couldn't see how tall the mountain was...it was beautiful---these were taken at a look out...i needed to stretch my legs
i arrived between 3 and 4pm and i didn't get lost until the end...i was one street off but easily fixable
i entered the security place and received a pass and followed Louis up to the house...it is a mighty fine house...BE-U-TIFUL house and view...about 30 minutes later to and hour i cherry arrived home from work and they(mostly cherry) started cooking...Louis somewhat helped and mostly watch march madness(basketball)...i was laying on the couch and told them if they gave me a blanket i would go to sleep in less than 5 minutes...---front of the house and in the other one the back of the house(the tree line-in between the sky and trees)
two hours later i woke-up from my nap and had some tacos...cherry had passed out on the other couch and louis was still watching basketball.
i had my own floor with three bedrooms, two baths, and one balcony with a beautiful view. i of course choose the room that didn't get the sunlight...it was comfy(the bed) and i just remember sitting on it going YES it is not HARD...WOO-HOO! all i remember is laying down and wa-la morning rolled in...
it was a Saturday and cherry and i decided to go shopping in flat rock which has 4 shops and hendersonville(5 minute drive could be the same town) which is the size of Athens or a little bigger. it was fun, but things were somewhat out of my price range...i enjoyed the no homework aspect of it...i did buy a glass flower(sounds dorky but it is quite pretty)---we had dinner out this night at and inn right by there house, the best part basketball was one (my brother and mom would be proud i sort of got into the basketball games)
on Sunday we decided to drive to triple falls and high falls..it was a nice hike with cherry...it was probably no father then 30 minutes away..on the way there we saw a sign saying pottery so we stopped...it was a very nice women and her dog(cute dog)...i bought a small pot(kind of like an over sized mug without the handle). ---this night we ate fajitas...mmm, mmm---triple falls top and high falls bottom-(high falls was more impressive in sight then in picture- i just like the tree)
on Monday cherry had to work and get up early...so louis and i were up to our own devices...he decided to take me to a casino...the rule was i wasn't allowed to play with my own money(he did want to hear from my dad...like my dad would say anything :) i am 21) we drove to Cherokee, NC, which is about an hour and half away...we saw many daf-a-dills(i don't know how to spell)
we lost...lots of Louis's money about *cough*400 dollars*cough* but it was fun...i think i would go to a casino to watch the weird people...one guy had to hit the button a certain way, another guy had to touch the rainbow repeatedly on the screen...---this night we ate lasagna and salad
on Tuesday was my last day there i took it easy i got breakfast with louis and came back to there house and read my book while he worked...we were waiting for people to come pick,look and do things at there house. after reading my book most of the day i turn on the TV and watch it until cherry came home...we decided that we would go out to eat and try a new place so we went to the steak house, it was yummy salad, fillet mignon, baked potato...yummy
i left at about 8, closer to 9, on Wednesday, no one was home both, cherry and Louis had gone off to do there work...it was a nice time with great people and they made it very relaxing
