Starting Up...

We made it to Cherokee in spite of the snow, sleet and general nastiness of the weather. We also dodged a rock slide outside of McDowell County that sent us on one hell of an adventurous "detour." When I asked a man in Louise's Famous Rock House Restaurant why the road was closed he replied with a look of confused contempt: "'Cause they ain't no road there no more." Gulp.

We meet up for breakfast tomorrow morning at 7 before heading to the Dora Reed and Big Cove Head Start centers. Oh, and then I get to find an (hopefully) honest mechanic to fix my brakes. In Maggie Valley they started sounding like two bulldogs with a longstanding grudge. Sigh.

Can't wait to get into the kitchen and start making PB&Js for all those kids!

  2. Happy that you all made it safely there. At least it's already started off as an adventure no one will forget.
