Last night Speed Racer and I were feeling a little antsy in our pantsy after a lazy afternoon. We had managed to go on a nice 23 mile bike ride in the morning before the rain started. But after that were trapped inside, and quite frankly, took advantage of it with a long Sunday afternoon nap. After dinner with some friends, the clouds cleared up and we hit the highway.
To Norris Dam.
We really got there at the perfect time of day. The rain had cooled everything off, leaving a slight mist on the water. It was gorgeous.
This is one of our favorite "date nights." We just get in the car and drive somewhere. We've been doing this since either of us could drive and it's great because it's cheap, and relaxing, and just the two of us.
The two of us AND my CAMERA!
Unfortunately for Speed Racer...but he's very nice and lets me take picture of him...except when he decides to start moving around, to be mean.
Of course we were lucky to get a hot press car to ride around in too.
It was a wonderful night, and a great way to start the week.
