max patch.





while in north carolina, luke & I spent an afternoon high up in the mountains, on max patch. it was a breath-taking view; on a clear day, you can see 100 miles in every direction.
we walked up the trail to the clearing & found delicious, ripe blackberries & many types of wildflowers & medicinal herbs. we spent some time at the top, making photos & eating our packed lunches. it was such an incredible afternoon.
now, back in columbia, I crave the quiet of the blue ridge mountains & the clean air you breath in at the very top. we’ve been unpacking our apartment for three days now. yesterday, after coming home from work, I found luke in our apartment, with built bookcases, curtains hung, & boxes unpacked. he’s too good 🙂
I have so much to blog about & I promise I’ll catch up in the next few weeks. until then, I have to finish more of my to-do’s!
