Kristin and I had a really relaxing weekend in North Carolina. We spent a couple of days at my grandparents farm…We love it up there…My nephew,Taylor, was there as well. We got to take him to Atlanta to meet my brother. My mom surprised us and rode with my brother…It was great to have a family lunch…Now for the biggest story of our trip:

I was nearly killed by a swarm of angry hornets. Kristin has been begging for me to take her tubing for months. I told her that when we went to North Carolina we would go because there are some really good tubing places there. So, Sunday morning we load up and drive about an hour over to Tennesse to do a little tubing on the Hiawassee River. The water was freezing…AND the route was a lot longer (three hours) than we thought. So I’m relaxing in my tube when suddenly the current carries more toward the edge. Then I realize there’s a massive wasp’s nest and I’m heading right for it…So I try to paddle out of the way with my hands…Unseccessful. Next thing I know I nail the nest…Wasps bust out everywhere…Hundreds of them…Nay, thousands of them…I immediately flip myself into the water to evade the angry insects. Luckily, my crazy evasive technique worked…Not one sting.

You may be wondering why there are no pics from our recent journey. The answer is simple, but painful. I forgot my camera.
