    Video: Doughton Park, NC

    This is my rendition of a weekend trip to Doughton Park with Tall Paul and Bonepile. We parked on the Blue Ridge Parkway at Alligator Ridge overlook and used the Bluff Mtn, Cedar Ridge, and Grassy Gap trails for @ a 17 mile trip. Had a wonderful 2 day trip, great weather, beautiful scenery, good trail condition, and excellent company. Tall Paul has a great video also and I hope you enjoy this one.

    Nice video Firebird - it's nice to be in the video instead of behind the camera.
    I don't know how you did your opening sequence but I like it.
    I'm still laughing at the Mr. & Mrs. Brinegar comment.

    Firebird,

    Thanks for the video. This SE weather has been crazy with ice storms one week and then shorts weather the next.

    Hey, Firebird

    It sure was a pleasure hiking with you and Paul. Nice to see things from your point of view. With you and Paul's cameras going I never needed to bring mine along. It was fun and I hope we can get together for some more hikes.

    Tall Paul and Bonepile......It was the great company that made for a great trip. I'm looking forward to another. You Brinegars are good folks. Thanks for putting it together Paul!

    Thanks for watching StinGa. Yeah, that's the second time I've worn shorts this year. You gotta love the south.

    That really is some pretty country. I've not been there in the 20 years. Actually, I believe they were Brinegar distant cousins. Thanks for watching PMan.
