168. Slowing Down in the High Country

168. Slowing Down in the High Country

In this episode, we recap a recent family getaway to the beautiful high country of North Carolina. From casting lines on a quiet lake near Blowing Rock to paddle boarding, swimming, and building boats with our kids, this trip was all about slowing down and soaking up time together. We share stories of hunting for salamanders and crayfish, discovering wild blackberries, and the joy of introducing our kids to the simple wonders of the outdoors. Join us for a laid-back reflection on why sometimes the best adventures are the ones where we’re fully present—with our kids, in nature, and in the moment.
