OVERVIEW

Join me and my wonderful fourth year counterpart, Blair, for sunset, slumbers and snuggles inside the Elliott Knob firetower Friday night! Google weather has a little snow emoji for next Friday so I can only take that to mean that winter is coming and we better get as many fall nights outside as we can before they’re gone. We will bounce outta cville as late as we can to still catch sunset on Friday and be back as early as possible on Saturday to keep this trip short and sweet!
