Andersons come to Boone

Our good friends Tom & Raquel drove up from Rock Hill, SC to spend a few days with us in Boone. They were the inspiration and helped develop the plan for the back yard. We enjoyed yummy food and explored the Moses Cone Museum and trail.

In front of the Cone House/Museum. "The Denim King" Moses and his wife did not have any children and after his death, the property was bequeathed to the National Park Service.

The Cones would walk the "figure eight loop" every morning. A very pleasant trail through the woods.

After going through the museum, we headed toward the carriage house for a pitstop. We barely got inside and the skies opened! After the rains stopped, we headed into Blowing Rock for a tasty lunch at the Pub.
We'll see the Andersons again when we head to Clemson for the FSU-Clemson game in November. Won't be long!
