Casey volunteered at the ARCA (AIDS Research Consortium of Atlanta) 21st annual fundraiser tonight. Doesn’t he look great?

Also, Jasmine Guy (Dead Like Me, Vampire Diaries) was there.

Casey spotted him crawling on a neighbor’s parked car tire and I scooped him up to put him in a better spot 🙂

Today we went hiking at Pigeon Hill Trail. We used our GPS so you can check out our route and stats below!

Anolis carolinensis

Limenitis arthemis astyanax

2 lizards in the crack!

Eumeces fasciatus

. . . mountain bike! Today we went for our first mountain bike ride at Longleaf Trail nestled behind the gorgeous Berry College campus (the largest campus in the world at 26,000 acres!) in Rome, GA. We ended up riding 7.5 miles.

There were a bunch of caterpillars crawling around in this!

oops

Today was the last day of the bike store grand opening promotion where the first 100 people got $20. We got there bright and early and got some awesome stuff all for free! Casey got the grand prize when he spun the prize wheel-fancy new sunglasses! And I won $20 on the prize wheel overall. We also ended up getting the brake cable housing Casey needs to redo the new brakes on his mountain bike, and a new Camelbak! We were also entered to win both a new road bike and mountain bike. We can’t wait to hit the trails 🙂

Day 2 free bike store loot!

What 80% humidity will do to you

I found this huge bug in the sink when I woke up

We got up really early to go the this bike store’s grand opening near us. They were giving the first 100 people $20 gift cards!

The loot we got today! We get to go back Saturday and Sunday and do it all again 🙂

We finished our morning with a trip to the dog park
