Labor Day 2008

I have found where all the old people go that leave Z-Hills and surrounding areas in the summer time, we are staying at a campground called Down by the River in Pinola, NC, we will stay here thru October and will probable come back here next year. (kinda like the other old people).

We are under 2 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway, and some good hiking trails, the Linville River borders one side of the campground and the Pisgah National Forest is on the other side of the Parkway. Grandfather Mountain is less than 10 miles North and Linville Falls less than 7 miles South.

It is a lot cooler here than other places.

The remnants of Fay rain on us for 3 days, the first night it rained 8+ inches and the Linville Rivers originates around Grandfather Mountain, got pretty high and came close to running over into the campground.

Today there is a covered dish dinner at the club house for Labor Day that we will attend.

Guess there won't be much more to add to the Meanderings Blog, looks like we have stopped wandering very far.
