Vacations Are Fun

Kristin and I recently returned from a trip to Gatlinburg with some friends and family. We had a great time.

As a child I had a fascination with throwing eggs over the balcony at my Grandparents’ mountain home in Hayesville, NC. I guess I thought I would grow out of this tradition at some point, but I was proven wrong this weekend as me and the guys spent a good amount of time throwing eggs and produce off of our balcony. I am sure the management didn’t mind as it seems the guests before us had thrown over an entire rocking chair in what was no doubt an “impaired” decision if you know what I mean (Alcohol).
Below are some pictures from our trip. I know this post is long long-awaited so I hope you enjoy it. To all of you “everyday readers” of jordanrippy.com I apologize for the lack of blogging lately. I know many of you probably thought that I had died, or worse, lost my internet. Let not your heart be troubled. I am back.
