During Fall Break I had to chance to travel with the FGCU Outdoor Pursuits to Brevard, North Carolina to do some camping, hiking, and rock climbing. I am terrified of heights; not scared, but terrified. I do love adventures, hiking, and camping so I signed up. Words fail me when I try to describe the beauty of North Carolina. Reds, yellows, oranges. Colors of leaves now common in palm tree heaven Florida. The weather, though, was not to my liking. I have Floridian blood and thin skin. Nights were really uncomfortable with only a sleeping bag to keep you warm from 30degree weather. I fall in love with the world everytime I get to truly go out into nature like this. Being at the top of a mountain looking out into the forest is breathtaking and scary. Climbing was a whole different experience. I didn't do much relaxing or looking around hanging from a rope 80ft above the ground. I almost didnt do because I was just too scared. But thanks to a wonderful instructor at FOX climbing in Brevard, I was able to make it to the top.
I would love to own a home in NC someday. It is just to beautiful to not experience on a more regular basis. I don't know about year round, but for a couple or so months out of the year, I would be in heaven
