Elvis

We had a great week with Joe's parents. Our first visitors in North Carolina. I think we value family time a lot more now that we live so far from home. Although, Skype has been a great way to speak face to face with family. It might not be San Francisco, but we stayed busy and did some neat things. To name a few... we spent a day at the US Whitewater Center, we spent a day (and a half really) looking at houses with our realtor, but also driving around different communities.

We also took a carriage ride through the historic 4th ward of Charlotte on Sunday. Historic meaning first hospital, first doctor's office, first cemetery, etc. The detail on the houses was pretty amazing and the stained glass was amazingly pretty. Yes, I meant that.

Elvis was our chauffeur. He didn't accept tips.

Maybe this picture makes him seem more authentic. The brick drive adds to the picture.

They provided blankets, but the idea of using the same blanket that multiple other people use kind of creeped me out. Luckily we were dressed warm enough for the ride.
