The Assault on Mt. Mitchell

You gotta love a bike race that starts in the Krispy Kreme parking lot!

All lined up

Did I mention that it was cold and we got up at 5am...Harrison was sleepy and chilly

Off they go

Harrison finally perked up when we got to the donuts

All tuckered out

Joe, Harrison and I headed to South Carolina yesterday for Joe's bike race. Lillian stayed behind with her Godmother Anna due to all the bike logistics (and the fact that she is VERY two right now). Harrison was a good traveler for the most part. He enjoyed the hotel pool most of all. We had hoped to meet Joe at the top of Mt. Mitchell, but Harrison was over the whole bike race scene before is started, it was raining and we had no warm clothes or rain gear, and the two 2 hour bus rides up and down the mountain made us hesitant. So, Joe road the first 80 miles and them met up with us. Next year I will be more prepared (aka go without my chillins). I love to watch Joe do something that makes him feel so happy. It is nice for our family to support each other and get out of town every so often. Now, I need to go to bed because we have been up since 5am!
