  1. I love your list. There are so many things you've done I'd like to do (visit the Grand Canyon) and so many thing you haven't I'd like to do, too.

    These kinds of post are great because you can learn so much about a person! :)

    I hope you're having a great weekend!

  9. Awww shucks!! I'm so glad you liked your award and thank you for your kind words!! I actually thought about you this weekend!! AB and I and a couple of his friends went white-water rafting in Hot Springs, NC so we drove right through Asheville and the Biltmore!!! I was like, "SOOOO, one of my blogger friends says that the Biltmore is AWESOME!" but they weren't up for it this trip! Maybe soon though. Hope you had a good weekend!!
