We woke up early and drove to Grayson Highlands to backpack and camp out. We had a great hike, about 7 hours and 14 miles. We got to see the ponies and they've recently had babies so we saw some tiny baby ponies too. Salem was really interested in them at first. I was afraid she was going to get kicked.
So, we'd planned on hiking all day and then camping at an area that's down off the mountain a bit and sheltered from the harshest winds and weather. Thunderstorms were forecast for early Sunday morning. I hadn't been feeling great, fairly congested and coughing the last couple of days. Our camp spot was about 1 mile from the car. So we ended up cancelling the overnight campout and hiking the extra mile back to the car so we wouldn't have to do it in the rain Sunday morning. Drove home and stopped for sushi on the way. Great day!
