Rachel, Sadie and I will be depositing ourselves in Graham County
October 9-23 for CACA 2004. The anti-clave - being a formless, fluid thing, without any purpose except as revealed moment to moment (and, in an effort to allow folks a longer period to attend or not attend, or to avoid others, or to join others)- shall persist for the 2 weeks of my temporary residence. Since October is a fine time to be in the far western nc mountains, and because lodging is sparse in Graham County, i recommend making reservations early. Here are some web pages to study... http://www.main.nc.us/graham/grahammap.html http://www.main.nc.us/graham/geninfo.html http://www.grahamchamber.com/ For those wanting a rustic cabin experience, check out the Swan Cabin. It sits above Santeetlah Creek and at $25 a night, holding up to 10, it might be hard to beat for you outdoorsy types. reservations are tough for it. There are many camping spots on streams. I have some property that is not on a stream but is centrally located about 5 minutes north of Robbinsville on England Branch, about halfway between snowbird, santeetlah, and the SMNP's streams. if someone wants to pitch a tent there, you're welcome to do so... but with all the free and rental streamside campsites, i can't imagine why you'd choose it. if anyone needs more info, feel free to contact me by e-mail. those requiring a literate and experienced circus ringmaster are urged to contact wayno... jeff |

Does anyone know if those cabins are under the same management as the last time we stayed there ? Those folks were, uhh..., how shall I say, strange, strange to the point of the theme from Twilight Zone. They made me take all my beer bottles to the dumpster myself because the maids were afraid of the devil. I sweartagawd, you cannot make this **** up. I'm thinkin' somewhere right in Bryson City, close to the police and the hospital. ;-) -- Ken Fortenberry |
