Best Weekend Ever

This weekend was really fun! Friday night John came down to do some stuff exchanging. I went out to dinner with him and Will. We stayed there for a long time just hanging out, which was fun. We also talked about sailing details :-) After that we went to a party at one of Will's Cycling friend's apartment. Just so happens that Lucas is friends with JT's roomie (Kelly) so we took Lucas also. It had a very different vibe from all of the parties I have been to recently... in a really good way. Everyone was just talking and hanging out and they (being large dorks) even watched a cycling movie. I had a nice time. And I don't think I've ever been in a room with that many male shaved legs... or that many nice ones :-)

Saturday morning I got up early and Will took me to try the Vinings loop. I was really intimidated because he labeled it "the hardest ride you've ever been on." But actually it went well. We did a shorter loop because of time and since I had no idea what my ability was. I was pretty excited because even though I was slow going up the hills, they didn't feel too bad and I think I could've pushed a lot harder. It's really cool to feel my improvements so quickly and definitely. Will is going to take me to try the longer route soon (hopefully). But, it was one of the most fun rides I've ever been on and I decided that I really like going fast downhill! :-)

After that we came back, showered, and Jason and Apryl picked us up to go hiking at Tallulah Gorge. I love that place. It's gorgeous. It was a beautiful day. Last time Will and I were there we hiked to the top, but this time we hiked to the bottom. It's not as long, but 2400 steps still hurt, particularly after a 17 mile bike ride! We had a good time though. I really like them. They're both really nice and respectful and that's very refreshing. They're also really cute together.

Some pics from the adventure...

Yeah...



Awww....



WT...?



Oh now I get it...



Ew!



I was so tired when we got back. We just took a nap and watched tv for the rest of the evening, which was really fun and reminded me of when I used to visit Will in greenville (and we still don't agree on what to watch :-p) Today I got up early to go to Maddy's birthday party, then ran some errands and came back for spinning class. My legs weren't sore today, but they sure will be tomorrow!
