Happy Birthday, Clay!

Today is my husband's birthday!

We both had the day free and were able to spend it together. Clay wanted to hike, so we decided to go to Mount Mitchell. On the way, we stopped at a bike shop so that Clay could test ride a road bike. Then we got his birthday dessert at Rita's :)

One of the reasons we picked Mount Mitchell was that we knew it would be cooler. And we were right...it was 69 degrees when we got up there!

We parked at the restaurant and took the trail to the summit. It was a good hike, and it was nice to be outside and not too hot! Here is a picture of the restaurant from the summit.

We hung out at the top for a little while. Clay had to take more pictures of bees :)

 

And then we headed back to the car. The trip down did not take near as long :)

We had a great time celebrating Clay's birthday!
