we took a road trip...
here's some pictures I took on our impromptu road trip to #newrivergorge. my dad said seeing the bridge was on his bucket list and since we only live a few hours away we had to make it happen for him. also, making the short trip to Thurmond is cool if you like creepy abandoned places
