Scenes from the final day of our mini-break | An Insta-Post

We were sad to leave our little mini break in the mountains… but the time had to come eventually. Here are some snapshots of our final morning @ the Chetola Resort…

After a stop over at the Outlets and a drive through Main Street we headed back to walk around the grounds and enjoy a little lunch back at Timberlake’s.

Thank you so much for following along with The Avid Pen. Your support means the world to me.

I first started The Avid Pen, a Charlotte based lifestyle blog, as a place to celebrate the artistic world. As someone who has always had a love of color, I enjoy seeing the art in everything from beauty and skincare to fashion, food or in the places I travel to. I longed to tell a story both through words and through photographs.

I hope through following along with me you will see the beauty in the ordinary everyday moments.

Merci beaucoup!

Bonjour!
