    I have been wanting to go to the Linville Gorge for some time. I finally was given a chance. Here is my adventure.

    Managed to maintain my VPN long enough to watch the whole thing over here. Thanks for sharing that pal. Glad you finally got to visit and I'm pretty sure you'll be back.

    That was a great trip. That beautiful sunrise with the sea of fog can't be beat. I'd say the gorge bit you pretty well! Thanks for making and sharing a great video with us

    Thanks for watching. Yeah, I've been bit. I've got the marks to prove it.

    Sorry we couldn't meet up, me it was good to see you and your daughter down from Babel Tower. Did she have fun? By the way, nice car.

    Looks like you had a blast. Thanks for sharing this. Just one more step toward convincing me I need to head up to Asheville again.
    I used to be a somebody, now I just camp.

    It takes your breath away doesn't it? It bit me hard the first time I stood on that rim and looked down into the Gorge from the Chimneys. All I could say was wow...wow....oh wow!
    Congratulations on your Gorge scars too!!

    Great stuff, Jeremy. Really enjoyed your taste in music--everything from bluegrass to big band. Glad you got to make the trip and glad you took us along. Thanks.

    It was worth the trip for me.

    Wow would be an accurate description. I do like the stories the scars tell. I've lost my breath there. I think...I need to go find it.

    The bluegrass is Andrew Peterson. He has a few songs that are bluegrass. The rest are folk/ light rock. As a swing dancer I do like the big band stuff. It all just seemed appropriate.
    I'm glad you liked the video.
