Fall Break 2022

We went to North Carolina for Fall Break!  
Our first stop was Bevard NC, the home of bike trails and Seth’s Bike Hacks/Berm Peak/Berm Peak Express You Tuber!   We got to rent his Airbnb for a few nights!  The boys were start struck with seeing all the things that Seth has talked about on camera!!!  


He calls it the Ranger Station!




It even has its own bike shop in the basement!!!


RV cars to play with !!


Huge bean bags!!!

A BIKE washing station!

Portable Ping Pong!

Their own mugs!!



We went to several trails for the boys to ride!!!






Then the first night we found a Pumpkin Fest!!!

Cool carved pumpkins on the property of Silvermont Mansion in town!  

Hilarious lady that was giving out good wishes!!!


And Bervard is the home of the white squirrels!  We found this out AFTER the pumpkin fest!  We were like ‘WHY is their a mascot of a white squirrel to take your picture with?’   They are protected in Bervard.   They are not albino!  Story has it that a circus came to town and had 2 white squirrels.  There was a family that wanted them, but couldn’t bread them, so they let them go, so they have bread with regular squirrels!  It was crazy seeing white squirrels all over!!!! 



Silvermont!


We then checked into our next place…. Just kidding!   We went and toured the Biltmore!
Brian and I had been there when I was pregnant with Pierce!

Mingo Falls right outside of Cherokee NC!

The well at our second cabin!!!

 Our second cabin had their own trail on the property!  
It was so pretty!




I loved how all the signs in town at Cherokee had the native language on there too!!!

This was the “MAN CAVE” they called it at the second cabin!
They literally did not come up the WHOLE time!!!
Ha! Memories!!!!!
