Hello Hurricane Dorian, welcome to my world, I didn't want you here, but now that you are I just have to suck it up and accept it. In doing that, we had a mandatory evacuation from Savannah, forcing us to seek shelter somewhere dry.
SOMEHOW we wound up in Highlands, North Carolina. The most beautiful, wonderful, magical part of the world, and just because I went to camp here for ten years doesn't mean I'm biased...
This is actually where my roommate Ana did most of her growing up as well. We are staying in her grandparents old house where she spent her summers. It's wild to think that we had so many similar experiences as children and didn't meet until college.
As the night came to a close, we drove up to Sunset rock to well, you can guess... watch the sunset...
It was stunning, the way the colors kiss the tops of the blue ridge mountains gets me in my ~*feels*~ this place is so special to me.
I also got a film camera and have been taking lots of photos on that, cannot wait to see how they'll turn out, hopefully they capture the moment. As ready as I am for school to start, I want to stay here forever, I want to soak in the crisp mountain air and avoid responsibility at ALL COSTS!!
We don't know how long we will be here, no news from SCAD, and Dorian isn't supposed to hit until this morning, so we will see, hopefully Savannah will stay safe and in tact, I know many have already been hurt by this hurricane and worse... More updates on all of that soon.
Until then, enjoy these last extra bits of summer!
xo, O
