Spring Break

Spent the week at Hilton Head with Joy on a "working" break. We enjoyed a little down time and the wildlife. Sean and I spent the weekend camping in Sesquicentennial State Park in Columbia. I would say the Weddell's are ready for summer!

Winter Wonderland

The final portions of the mountain to sea trail are being finished in our area (1000 mile trail across NC). We were lucky enough to hike a new portion off the Blue Ridge Parkway. It was a cold hike in 13 degrees and gust up to 30mph with some snow on top, but well worth the views!

Costa Rica

We had a great time in Costa Rica on a study abroad trip for ASU. Back to work and school next week!

Winter

is finally here! Went out for my first day on the slopes and the legs are feeling it! Heading down to Kiawah for the half marathon and a visit with the girls. Happy Holidays!

The Fast Lane

Fall semester has flown by! It seems to go faster each year. We celebrated the Snape's wedding with great friends, cross raced, and spent some time at home. Now we are on the road for Thanksgiving, the Kiawah half marathon and then Costa Rica after xmas. Happy Holidays to all!

Fall

Fall is finally in the air with cool temps and fall colors. We've had a busy September with so many birthdays and travels. I harvested the last of my tomatoes and was invited to judge sheep at a local 4-H show. School is very busy and we are hosting two South African students for a few weeks. October will prove to be just as busy with no end in sight. At least I have plans for next summer!

Labor Day

I don't know where summer went! My garden has been fruitful this year and I have been busy canning and putting up for the winter. I've been hiking on some great NPS trails by our house where I am supervising a student intern. Chip came to visit us for our week and it was nice to have him back in the states. We are now spending Labor Day in Clemson and enjoying a cool, beautiful weekend!
