30 Days of Camping: Days 5-7, Price Lake / Blue Ridge Parkway
Manage episode 430088348 series 2939802
Ever wondered how a simple card game could add a twist to a camping adventure? Join us as we navigate through Part 2 of our 30-day camping challenge, recounting our second trip. From an intense game of Uno that kept our competitive spirits high to Michele's unforgettable reaction to receiving a kayak surprise from Matt, this episode is packed with heartfelt moments and unexpected surprises. Relive the joy of a surprise Natalie Merchant concert that Matt planned, adding a layer of harmony to our journey.
Our adventure unfolds further as we set up camp in the secluded beauty of Julian Price Park, surrounded by majestic old-growth trees and the gentle presence of a curious doe. Discover the practical and safety measures we took, including using SATCOM in areas with limited to no signal. Our maiden kayaking trip was not just an activity but a testament to our preparation and Michele's newfound freedom in solo paddling. Amid the fun and challenges, including forgotten medical supplies to an unending round of Uno, we reflect on how these natural escapades have significantly contributed to our health recovery and well-being.
The tranquility of high-elevation camping at Julian Price Park, near Boone, NC, offers a stark contrast to our previous experiences. Imagine the serenity of an entire campground loop to ourselves, only to be momentarily interrupted by a sneaky animal raiding our food supply. These moments, along with a repeated yet heartwarming encounter with a deer, underscore the magic of our stay. Adapting to life on the road, we share our day-to-day challenges and triumphs, from drying clothes to the simple joy of cooking hot dogs over an open fire. As we prepare for our next adventure, let the soothing sounds of night frogs be your closing lullaby.
