Part 3…

You can find the earlier posts here… Part 1 & Part 2

Had life not intruded on the best laid plans, this is what I would have seen a whole lot of for the next 7 days…


I had already picked up a nice stack of books to take along. A Ludlum, a Baldacci, a Dillard, a Berry and a stack of guidebooks. When not reading in the hammock which, truth be told, is not as comfortable as it once was I usually spend a my time reading at the picnic table on the deck…

The only thing on our agenda ever on our first day at the cabin is to make the initial trip to the Original Mast General Store to feel like we are back and pick up that first bottle of ginger beer and a grocery run either to Boone or Banner Elk…flip a coin makes no difference. Other than that it’s a day to laze about, walk up the mountain, hit the hot tub, play pool or do absolutely nothing.

I miss the mountains already…
