Sights: Family! A chicken show, trunk or treating,
We've been having an excellent time visiting family. We got here Thursday night and had a delicious dinner of pork, potato and carrot followed by an introduction to "Doctor Who", an excellent sci-fi show.
Friday was wonderful. Jamie and I borrowed a car to go to Walmart-our first walmart experience since being on the trail and let me tell you-we bought to much.
Then Billy and Alicia took us to downtown Waynesville. It was super cute and artsy. There was a great coffee shop-complete with sullen barista and huge comfy orange sofas. We came back to meet the kids and Jamie and I babysat while Billy and Alicia went out. It was really fun to hang out with the kids as I've (shannon) has never really gotten to know them very well. I've really loved hanging out with them. Also, we played some great rounds of DanceDanceRevolution.
Saturday I went to a chicken show with Alicia. They raise chickens and have about 2 or 3 dozen. I'd never considered chickens before and it was so interesting to hear about all the different kinds of chickens and see how cool they were. It was so cool.
Then we went out "Trunk or Treating.". It's a thing all the churches do. People bring their cars and open the trucks in the parking lot. Then the kids can all go trick or treating at them. It was really fun. We went to two different ones. The first one was Methodist and they had fried oreos, a petting zoo and a bounce house. The second was much more religiously themed, it was a Baptist church and each of the games was themed around different bible stories and the people were all dressed up as different Bible Characters. That one was really fun with good games and hotdogs and cookies. They had a great raffle for the kids and as it was all mostly centered inside one room it was easier to relax.
When we got back, we were all sugared up so we watched Hocus Pocus. It was a great night of Halloween fun!
We're heading out today after lunch. We're sad to be leaving but if we don't get back out there-we never will.
