the swelling has gone down enough to write a few lines and post a few pics
of my meanderings in the nc and tenn mountains and lakes. it's a blur now,
but, as usual, the kindness, humor, and camaraderie to be found among the
friends i've discovered in roff remain the highlight. thanks to each of
them.

(great tr snipped)

thanks for the view---i always appreciate your portrayal of the experience,
and the clarity of your prose.

i might squeeze out a tr of my own, relating to the somewhat traditional may
trip to the smokies with my cousin dash riprock hedrick and krazy konnie. a
trip which, in more ways than one, is a shadow of its former self.

or not; depends on how the wheels are rollin'.

i really hated to miss the tennessee part of the journey, but this lawyering
has damn near gotten out of hand.
