Title: Going to be up around Dougs Territory
Post by: Platefire on March 17, 2009, 07:02:05 am
My youngest of three daughters is graduating from Basic Training at Ft. Jackson SC and the wife, I and 94 year old Dad is going up for family day and graduation. Then we are taking her to Ft. Bragg NC to begin her AIT. I would love to take the long way back home through the beautiful country around where Doug lives at but I'm sure we'll be beating it back down I-20 home again ASAP.

Some old favorite song lines:
 "Good ol Sunday Morning, Bells are ringing everywhere. I'm going to Carolina, I know I'll soon be there" 

Can anybody guess what what band/what song? They just don't make um like that anymore!

I ride my Road bike past sliding rock every wedndesday night on the way up to the Blue Ridge Parkway.

We can hear all the tourist scream as they hit that cold pool of water at the bottom.

The deer had no fear of you

I think that was summer of 06 we passed through that neck of the woods.  The Blue Ridge Mountain Parkway is totally badass!  We got on it right after we left Sliding Rock and got off at Pigeon Forge.  That place is a TRIP.  You go from beautiful mountains to toursitville USA in a blink of an eye.
