Recalculating My Route


I’m not the person who sits on the beach reading a book.  That may sound relaxing to some but it’s just not for me. I like to keep busy and when I’m vacationing I have the burning desire to see and do everything. I’m an explorer at heart and I’m grateful that I married a man who shares in this desire to get out and see the world even if a 5.5 hour drive home ends up taking 11 hours.


Why the added time to travel home? It all starts with technology. It’s the way of the world, right? Just plug in your coordinates into the IPhone and start your drive. It’s perfect until you decide to make a random right turn. Who likes interstates anyway? So we see an inviting road,  turn right,  and hear the words “Recalculating Your Route”. I love those words because in our car, that’s when the adventure begins.  By veering off our planned path, we had the opportunity to see the most beautiful countryside.  “Kids, put the games down and look around” I say and we roll the windows down and our journey begins.

The farms at The Mast Farm Inn

Along this winding mountain road, we find the rural village of Valle Crucis. Look down and the road follows a lush river. Look up and you can follow the mountains. Our first stop is the Mast Farm Inn which has been welcoming guests since the 1800s. This bed and breakfast also is home to an award winning restaurant, Simplicity at The Mast Farm Inn. Featuring local vendors, bakers, farmers, and producers as well as 3 three principal distillers of North Carolina Moonshine, the restaurant won “The Best Dish in North Carolina Award”.  We park and start to walk around.






















Found Some Friends Along The Way

Another Friend



The rest of our route takes us up the mountain, I mean straight up a narrow road. The kids were wowed by the steep inclines and frankly, so was I.  We pass beautiful old barns, lush fields, and even a woman and child waving at everyone driving by. Our recalculation eventually brings us back to our planned path. The right turn was well worth our time.  We did detour two more times during our trip. One of those was to Linville Caverns which I’ll save for another blog.


Happy Travels!

Lowcountry Inspired Kitchens ~ Hilton Head Island

Thinking of a kitchen remodel and still want to keep that lowcountry feel? Houzz is a great site for ideas. You're sure to find the kitchen of your dreams here. I've included a few of my favorites.


Traditional Kitchen by Raleigh Interior Designers & Decorators Driggs Designs
Great traditional kitchen with painted white cabinets. I’m admiring the granite and the tile backsplash. But my favorite here may just be the lighting fixtures.

Traditional Kitchen by Portland Interior Designers & Decorators Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc.
Black and white kitchens can be so elegant. This kitchen shows great with the two large islands, granite counter tops in Cambrian black with an antique finish, mini brick marble tiles behind the cooktop and the light blue walls which are Benjamin Moore’s woodlawn blue. The cabinets are painted Benjamin Moore’s decorator’s white. 



Traditional Kitchen by Buffalo Architects & Designers Murphy & Co. Design
Here’s another pretty white kitchen. The neutral granite looks great with the pine flooring. I especially like the exposed beams.

Traditional Kitchen by Tyrone Kitchen & Bath Designers Teri Turan
Here’s a nice color option. Looks like a seagrass color.


Traditional Kitchen by Saratoga Springs Design-Build Firms Witt Construction
Really like the custom design windows in this kitchen and the pendant lights. Looks like the lighting can be found here


Great coastal colored cabinetry. These cabinets are made by Mullet Cabinet ~ Cheseapeake Blue from the Heritage Collection. They look great with the black granite.



Another blue option. The upper cabinets are a rich cream color while the base cabinets are a version of blue. The cabinets are Shaker with the Rockford door. The base color is harbour.



Here is a green option. The cabinets are Orleans style in a French Country/Mint.


This kitchen is a nice mixture of light and dark. I really like the banquet with the nailhead detail.



Grey and black kitchen with contrasting granite countertops.



Another green option.

Happy hunting!

From Hilton Head To Blowing Rock

I now know why many of our clients have summer retreats in Blowing Rock, NC.  I spent the past weekend there visiting a friend. I took this opportunity to spend some much needed quality time with our youngest child. The second child rarely seems to get that quality alone time with parents like the first child had.  This was a very exciting and special trip for both of us.
August in Blowing Rock is BEAUTIFUL! The weather was perfect and not a drop of humidity was in the air.
So spending the days outdoors was a must. We shared breakfast with friends in a tucked away farmhouse in Blowing Rock. Amazing food and great company!

View from the ferris wheel at Tweetsie
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We also made a trip to Tweetsie. Have you been? We had an absolute blast and ended up seeing 2 Hilton Head families at the park. What a small world. I thought I would share our park experience with you. From the pictures, you can see that it was very exciting – for a 4 year old AND a thirty something adult.
Ferris wheel fun
I’m dreaming of a summer home in the mountains but in the meantime, I’ll make many visits to our sweet friend in Blowing Rock. Unless of course I win this…

Could this be the winner?
