As I mentioned yesterday, I am in North Carolina for the weekend visiting my little sister. This morning we woke up at the crack of dawn and she took me on an amazing hike to a place known as “The Triple Falls.”  If you have seen The Hunger Games, you may recognize this from some scenes in the movie.  This place is absolutely breathtaking.  So peaceful, serene and green!

One of the things I love about being active is it gives you an opportunity to see things you otherwise might not get to.  We hiked about 1.5 miles in to see this falls and then tackled over 100 stairs to get to the bottom (of course then we had to go back up!).  A hike like this gives you a great little workout but also lets you take time out of busy life to relax and enjoy natures beauty.  There is so much to see, and in my opinion, the best way to see things is to put on your tennies and get up and close!
