I have found myself very busy this semester. It seems like I have been buried in 'to-do' lists for the past few weeks. While I enjoy my commitments, this past weekend I was ready for something new. It was time to get off campus and do something fun. I have always enjoyed getting out and going for a hike, so I looked in to places in the Columbia area to have such an adventure. After not much research I found Congaree National Park. Last Saturday morning, Emily, Genelle, Pat, Sally, and I loaded into my car and drove down to the park. It was a beautiful day to be outside (which is ironic as it snowed 8 inches the weekend before). We spent 2 and a half hours enjoying the parks trails and boardwalks, and by hiked about four and a half miles. The park is only about a 25 minute drive from campus, so we were even able to make it back to Russell House for lunch. All in all it was a nice break. I look forward to going back more this spring.
