    Well it looks like things are changing around here. All I know is sometime between 17 Feb and 10 Mar I should be drinking whiskey on my own porch looking at those mountains.

    Yep. I think I will be home well before 10 March. I plan to do it sometime around the 12th of March I think. That way I get a good bit of the north-bounders and the boys are around and out of school to help out.

    Yes, I live down the road from Butterfly gap road. My back porch looks at the ridgeline where Foothills Parkway goes. But I wouldn't have a direct view of those condos - at least I don't think I would. There is a spur off the ridge that I think would block my view of them.

    Nebo Mountain - now I'm askeered. One of the residents of Nebo Mountain shot the back windshield out of my vehicle back when I worked in child protective services because I had removed her granddaughter. She later feed me some pickled bear meat durng a home visit... I'm not sure which was worse.

    No Nebo is East of us, Butterfly gap is West of us. There is a spur off Chilhowee ridge that is in-between Fall Branch and Barb Hollow that should block our view of Butterfly gap.

    You're a brave soul going up on Nebo Mountain to do something like that. Someone that has never been up on Nebo Mountain has no idea what it is like and it would be near impossible to describe.

    When you went up there, was the "No Speeding on Nebo Mountain" sign there?
