Morrow Mountain

Saturday afternoon we loaded up my car and headed towards Albemarle. This time we were headed to Morrow Mountain to see, and feed some deer! This place is pretty neat- you can camp, hike, picnic, rent cabins, canoes, paddle boats, go to the pool, you name it- they pretty much have a bunch of different activities you can partake in. However, the two times I've been, we just ride around and feed the deer (technically you're not suppose to feed the wild life though- shhhh). We had a nice dinner at a local Italian place, picked up some saltine crackers at the family dollar and then headed to the mountain. Getting there a few hours before sunset, we had plenty of time to make several loops to see how many deer we could find. We all made guesses of just how many deer we would spot. With a guess of 27, I came the closet, we saw 30+ and Travis even got to feed one right from his hand. We saw a baby fawn, and when I saw baby, that thing was TINY and ohh so precious. I wish we could have gotten a picture of her and her momma, but momma wasn't going to come anywhere near us unfortunately. We had a great time and I highly suggest you check out this place at some point if you get the chance.
