Well, I plan on spending the weekend of the 17th in my new-found oasis of Hot Springs, NC. Just about two hours above Black Rock.

The weekend of the 17th is also Trail Fest in Hot Springs, celebrating the hoards of hikers visiting from along the Appalachain Trail, which runs down main street and crosses the scenic French Broad River on the edge of town.

So far, the locals report mine as being the only VX that has made an appearance on Main Street, anyone else care to join in and show-up all those little Soobie Outbacks and Foresters?
