AM could put me there in time for the fishing, but I'd be showing up blind, never having been there before. I'd have to get a lake map and pick alot of brains before the trip I suppose. Those local accomodations sound alright to me, we live back in the country on a dirt road, so we ain't used to nothing fancy! Took the wife tent camping late last March for her first time ever at 55 y/o, she handled it like a soldier!
It sure sounds like it would be a great time there, I have to keep it in mind and as the date gets closer, I'll see if it's something workable for me. Thanks, Ron
We live close to I-81(exit 84) in VA. We are 4 1/2 hours from Eden which is an easy drive. You & your wife could leave on Thursday, spend the night with us and leave Friday morning. I will have to check on the VA laws first. I think harboring Yankees is a misdemeanor and carries a pretty strick sentence. You would have to come in after dark & leave before daylight and that shouldn't be a problem...lol...
