north carolina bound
leaving the salt for a coupla days and heading to bryson city enjoy some cool nights and deep creek tubing. if you guys see a white tahoe driving real slow, check for a v-20 sticker in the back glass before you flip it off. i hate driving at elevations greater then 25 feet.
everybody have a safe & happy 4th.

we were up that way last month, didn't make it to Bryson City, but took a days detour to DuPont State park, they have "High Falls, Triple falls and Hooker falls all within walking distance. If you decide to go, wear good walking shoes. Be careful in the water, the rocks are slippery. The water was nice and cool

We have friends in Durham, so would like to be somewhat close to them. Unfortunately wife has a ways to go before she can retire, and since she has a government job having her quit and lose her pension is out of the question..so in about 9 years we'll get down there.

The Beacon still serves up "A-Plentay!!" as J.C. says...he's the blind guy and was featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives...he wasn't there on my last visit, but far as I know he's still around...if you walk outta there hungry, it's YOUR fault!!...

heck you come to Mebane too that would be close enough to Durham, in Durham you would be half way between Hedge and myself. but while you're here stop in at Denton for the Old Threshers Reunion at the Farm park and see Blue Runner at the corn sells tent.
http://www.farmpark.com/seot.html http://www.farmpark.com/ and by the way look on this page http://www.farmpark.com/seotVendor_information.html yeah guys that you man in the yellow shirt putting butter on the corn is BR's Dad.
