Oh. My. God. What an awesome adventure! Today, LC and I went on a 6-hour kayaking trip out of Leesburg Virginia and ended at Terera Winery, voted the best winery in Loudon County, where we enjoyed a 2-hour tasting and winery tour. What a great day!
The weather was very cooperative, not too sunny and not [...]
