Mountain Life - A Quick Update

Gooey-Goo as someone would say, hey dog!

About a week ago me, my husband @matt-a, @robrigo and another friend of ours Alex packed our stuff and took a trip down south to Eastern Kentucky.
The ride from Detroit to our destination point is about 9 hours, long and tiring. Sometimes I'm glad that I cannot drive otherwise I would have to spend so much time behind the wheel on a freeway... freeways are scary haha. Anyways, early in the morning we made it to @tommyinthesun's place where we currently reside.

I haven't checked out the forest as deep as I would like to, but that is on the list :) so far so good, except . . .

I hate bugs.

I've been getting eaten alive by bugs and mosquitoes, it feels like the forest lives its own life, it's like a huge megalopolis, there's always something going on, you can hear it and if you're lucky enough, you can see it too. I found it pretty hard to spot any wild animals so far, apparently when I was harvesting some blackberries the other day, a family of deer walked by right near me, I didn't even hear them or see them :( I am hoping to see them though.

But hey, look at these berries!

This is what my country breakfast looked like this morning, it was pretty good: a handful of blueberries, some Kashi cereal and vanilla yogurt.

A few days ago we went to so called Cold Springs, you can collect water from the mountains there, filter it and drink, or just drink it if you're really thirsty. Those springs aren't too far from where we're staying, so we can go anytime we feel like it. Here is a preview of what you may encounter on your way, ain't she pretty?!

I wish I took more pictures to share but that is yet to come, we have a few more things on the list to do down here.

It is so dark in the woods, I'm excited to spend a night out there and make a fire haha. Damn! I wish I had that powder you can put in it to make it colorful, where would one buy it anyway? Maybe on Amazon? It is actually my go-to place for nearly everything.

It isn't easy to keep my blog updated as often as I'd like to being in the middle of Appalachian Mountains, but I am going to try my very best to post as much as possible, so keep your eyes peeled!

Here in a few days we plan on going hiking to Birch Knob Observation Tower, I hope we make it, so I can share this adventure with y'all :).

Foot-Foot is being a g0od cat for a change :D

By the way, she didn't come with us to Kentucky, although she has been here before just as the rest of our cats, this time we decided to let them enjoy having the house to themselves kinda haha.
