Saturday we took a drive to the top of our mountains. I feel like the mountains are kind of part of the family around here. They are always watching over us. Whether we’re driving to work or playing outside the mountains are here. Usually I forget about the mountains or take them for granted, but as soon as I find myself on flatter land I realize, ”something is missing from this landscape”.
Looking down from the mountains the world seems smaller, problems seem less important, and stress blows away like the clouds.
These are my mountains. They’ll always be home.

So close to the clouds it feels like you can jump up and grab them!

We calibrated the location of our house.
On the picture to the left, we’re at the base of the mountain on the left.

I didn’t even notice the crazy graffiti until after I took the pictures, kind of ironic.

I love these mountains too!
I love this. When I visited you guys before you were married and we went up Mt. Pisgah, it really gave me such a different feeling since I'm so used to flat land and beaches. Glad you guys enjoyed some time catching clouds together <3
yes, don't EVER take the mountains for granted. florida is nice and all, but it's no asheville awesomeness with the mountains in view and basically in your back door.
