Hot Job

After leaving NC we stopped in Washington and visited Arlington National Cemetary. As usual, it was hotter than heck there. The cemetary was very hilly, and pushing Al and Ev was hard. Alison found it interesting, especially JFK's Eternal Flame. I prefer his brother's "Eternal Waterfall." I wouldn't want to be buried with a fire on top of me, especially not in that hot place!

Evan in NC

Evan in the Pisgah Forest looking at the waterfall. Evan spent most of the time in NC climbing up and down the stairs at GS and Charlie's. He took over the fireplace hearth as his "place." It rained almost every day and Ev liked to play in the rain outside.

Cold Waterfall

This is a waterfall in Pisgah Ntl Forest. Mike went in the water underneath it and said it was freezing. On the other side of the road people were tubing.

Brevard NC 4th of July 05

Started the vacation on the 4th of July weekend in Brevard, NC. This is a main street celebration with street vendors, entertainment, etc. It was a very hot day here. We ate lunch at DD Bullwinkle's & Rocky's. It's like a 50's ice cream fountain with a general store. We also bought 25.00 t-shirts for all of us. There are some hilly and windy roads here. We went through Pisgah National Forest up to the Blue Ridge Pkwy.
