Brian, I will give you my wife's email addy so you can forward that to her.

No other returns as of this typing so I may have to go a little deeper when time allows.

A different take on The Sultans of Swing.

Dire Straits-Sultans Of Swing Gayageum ver. by Luna - YouTube

 

[carsten.witt]

Great, she has other nice cover songs!

 

[Cal Weldon]

Great version.
That's happens to be my high school graduation song in 1980. 13 years before she was born

Being near the end of the Baby Boomers, I once owned a pair of those and was quite pleased to find out that my attitude improved while wearing them. The saying 'looking at life through rose coloured glasses' is not a misnomer.

I'll have my mountain spot at some point in western NC or eastern TN....

I vacation on my motorcycle in western NC and eastern TN. I looked at real estate there last fall. Almost got my motorcycle stuck twice due to road conditions. Incredibly gorgeous part of the country. Currently scheduled to vacation there again this fall but the crazy covid drama may prevent that.

Then you've probably made the Tail of the Dragon run a few times. There are so many beautiful rides out that way. We're heading back in a few weeks for a road trip to see family (no bikes).

 

[woofertester]

Yes we do the tail of the dragon every year. Last year a small break-off group of us did the moonshiner 28. I actually like the moonshiner 28 more than the tail of the dragon.

We also do the Cherohahla Skyway and the Foothills Parkway and the Blueridge Parkway.

I attended a different second rally last year. A new to me road was Dracula's Driveway. There were orange suited hunters all over parts of Dracula's Driveway. It is in Transylvania County NC. Humorous names.

Next time your there try ‘the rattler’ NC 209, stop at Dave’s 209 for a burger ( next door to spring creek F.D.) look north from the parking lot up on the left you’ll see my cabin!

 

[woofertester]

I have not ridden the rattler. It is on the list. I have ridden the back of the dragon. I rode in a car on the snake and was appalled at how crumbled the pavement was.

What months are you in your cabin? My dream includes a bungalow in the Smokies.

Dirk, 1968 was a great year for many reasons. Your arrival being one of them!

 

[cubicincher]

to WBS

Oh, thank you! Many other good things happened in 1968...
I think there have been a few more important ones than my arrival.
But I have a mission: enjoy every day of my life and build some further nice amps.
And for sure - some other 'missions'.
