What a fun day yesterday was! We started day 2 with complimentary breakfast... I mean, it’s a bed and breakfast, so I’m sure we paid for it somewhere, but anyway...
Everything was delicious! We decided to visit Monticello, only to find that you had to buy tickets in advance and they were already sold out for the day! We bought tickets for today instead and yesterday we hiked the trail. We did about 3.7 miles, and stopped to read at about mile 2. We tried geocaching but failed epically. Maybe they were all muggled, but might have just really sucked.
It was definitely time for lunch. There was a very historic looking place called Miche’s and we couldn’t wait to try it out. It was a southern buffet, with fried chicken, black eyed peas, biscuits, Cole slaw, and more. The plate and cup were tin. It was amazing. It was very dimly lit, and very fun!
We shopped at the General Store and then went out hunting for Little Free Libraries. We found two and couldn’t find two. The two we did find both had great books in them, and I found 1 and Morgan found 2! After that, we decided to geocache before picking up some salads at Wegmans for dinner. We managed to find all 3, and one had a Travel Bug with it! Morgan is taking it back to Jersey with her.
I won’t say much about how we found the caches, but I will say to wasn’t easy and made us feel a lot better about the ones we couldn’t find at Monticello!
We came back and both read the Steamy Romance book from the Once Upon a Book Club special collection. I won’t post the gifts here, since it’s a spoiler, but I will be posting them on Insta with a spoiler warning! It was a great book, I highly recommend it!
Would you go on a Reading Retreat? What kind of activities would you want to do? Stay tuned for today’s activities! I will be posting tomorrow, and probably also on Instagram at @BarkingMadAboutReading
