Don't stand under the apple tree....495 viewsI know, it's supposed to be 'sit" under the apple tree but, we were sitting on those bike seats for far too long.

Oh, yeah, Virginia Creeper Trail August 12, 2011.

First Trip 348 viewsBJ made her first trip to the bottom of Linville Gorge. She sure was a great hiking pal.

Actually she had no trouble and we had energy to see the Plunge Pool.

If you are reasonably fit and visiting Western North Carolina, you should go down to the gorge. After the crowds go home and during the work week this is a wonderful place to sit in awe of what time and water has wrought.

CG 1275 Remembered364 viewsTo the best of my knowledge and ancient memory, this was the first Coast Guard aircraft I flew on~1964, at Elizabeth City, NC.

I had just arrived from eight Years of AIMING HIGH, USAF. For this I gave up B-52s and an eight hour day.
