"Jeff Miller" wrote in message news:1gjec.18572$192.3011@lakeread06... having tired of reeling in the legions of alosa mediocritus (hickory shad for the unwashed) in the flatland rivers, i decided i should head to the mountains for proper devotionals and resurrection of the spirit - "the passion of the grist". //snip// jeff (southern hayseed, reborn yet once again) Wonderful TR, Jeff - well written - and terrific pix on ABPF. Wish I was there. I just spent two weeks in Oregon and the San Juan Islands in NW Washington, plus a couple of days on the Olympic Peninsula - and took SWMBO instead of a flyrod. It's beautiful country out there, but I think I'm making progress in convincing her that she owes me one. Gonna plan on October, fer sure. Bob how fortunate are those of us who call the north carolina blue ridge mountains our home (sigh ;-} ) Snakefiddler |

I've lived in a number of States and the only other place I've seen this was in West Virginia. Willi |

Willi willi, as a transplanted native floridian going on ten years of blue ridge residency..... i can only say that i think it's a spirit thing.... perhaps bordering on insanity. when i was a youngin'.... vacationing one summer up here.... dad drove us up grandfather mountain. i guess i fell in love with the place then.... marie's and my home is now in the shadow of grandfather on one of it's many flanks.... i'd be just fine living up here 'till i die..... but i'll probably have to move down off the mountain to morganton cuz the commute is a bitch to work. i guess that will be ok,,,, but not the same. i'll still be in crow flyin distance of 'ole grandfather and the gorgeous trout streams that coarse through and around it's ancient granite. wally |

The southern Appalachians evoke the soft curves of a reclining woman. What better place to spend some time? Bob |
