Labor Day Mountain’s Trip Part 2

Aston Playing hide and seek by Strauss Lake at High Carolina. Strauss Lake is a small 3-4 acre lake that will be the site for Tiger’s 8th green and 9th Tee.

Aston went on 2 hikes with us…both over like 1.5 miles…Bab’s had to hold him for part of the 2nd hike but for the most part he was gettin’ down and dirty with nature…2 year old style…checking out every bug, leaf, flower and water fall…all in awe and inspiration…so fun to watch as parents

This was where I almost stepped on a snake and jumped a mile…it was a brown one like 3 feet long

On the last day we went into Asheville for lunch and to walk to "Aston Street" for a photo shoot. At lunch there was a live hippy band right in front of our table...it was like I was home again...dreadlocks and all...just like the Vermont days...it's in Aston's blood...I mean look at his hippy dancin' skills!

Can’t believe this was Aston a year ago…the same weekend in Kiawah…it was 2 days before I found out Stellyn was in my belly!

beautiful pics - so glad asty loved being in the grand outdoors though the snake sounds absolutely terrifying. the vid of asty from last year is too funny - they were so awkward when they walked - now they run like crazy!
