28 December 2007

Dad had hoped to drive up into the mountains on the 27th, but my sister's need to work on her college essays prevented that. We did make the drive on the 28th, and, though we couldn't see much with the fog and rain, I really enjoyed the trip. What I did see were bare forests wreathed in fog, which sent my imagination flying over what life here had been like in the Civil War era and, earlier, when Daniel Boone had lived here. Speaking of Mr. Boone, we stopped in Boone at the Dan'l Boone Inn for our lunch and had a family-style meal that was quite reminiscent of my grandmother's cooking on the farm. Yummy.
