camping on the parkway!

OK,OK I guess I am a little late on writing this....But I had 2 great days on the mountain parkway,and I'm sure everyone else in our family did too!!!!We woke up on Saturday morning very early....and I woke up and I felt like slugging someone because I wanted to sleep!!!Well Chloe ambles up with Her to short pants,yawns and said"Hannah,could You pull My pants to stretch them longer???"Hannah of course tries....but doesn't succeed...She says"Sorry,I dont have strength in Me IM TIRED!!!So Then I say"Oh,Chloe I probably can do it because I feel like slugging someone!!"Well I did it good....I think I did....but Chloe went up to Ian and asked so I'm not sure.Then I ate something,Well OK I dont really remember what I ate I just ate.Then We got our pillows..tooth brushes....And the personal animals We have slept with since We where babies!Then We Walked up the bark mulch path that looked a little worn out from being walked on....We all got in the van and Joshua and I raced to the back seat...Ha,Ha best place ever to sit so You can make faces at people!Just kidding I'm not that mean!!Well I used to do it....But after Ian said"Israel,how would You like it if You were driving along,and this little kid kept sticking out his tongue at You?Hm???'"I didn't answer...as far as I remember...but it still made Me feel guilty.....for life.Then We all watched T.J the neighbors dog pull stunts...Then He ran away when Daddy started the van....Maybe because He didn't because  that's normal if a dog doesn't want to get ran over.then We started driving....T.J ran after the van when He stopped We started banging on the glass prompting Him to keep running....He didn't chase us any more....but He did chase a truck of some sort!!!Well I dont like to talk about driving on the road...I get car sick...!!!So We were up in the mountains and our first stop was at linville caverns!!!!I was so excited I was in a cave!We went through the little gift shop and then a tour guide named Hannah I believe took us through the cave....Cave water kept dripping on our heads...and at the end Hannah(guide)said'Well Ya'll didn't get cave water in y'alls hair did y'all,because if y'all did in the morning You will have cave hair!Oh my goodness I was horrified,I think She was kidding because I'm pretty sure My hair looks normal!Then We drove to our campsite...The man told us lots of bears go through the camp ground,so dont drop any food,or leave any food around!Well on our campsite there were like these big tin boxes called bear boxes,Your supposed to put Your food in there,but what I'm wondering is why dont the build a box for humans to get in,in case a bear comes?Well We ate,and Then The next morning We went on a 3 hour hike!poor Me I had on frog shoes!!!Then We went to a place to get delicious apples,and peaches...That's all I had a blast!!!!
