OK so I'm going to catch you up...
On some of my lat days in Nashville i had most things packed up in boxes so I got to have some fun with friends! April 19th weekend Tory, Michelle, Camden and I went to a really cool water fall over night hike just east of town near Crossville, TN called Virgin Falls. That was a blast! I rode my motorcycle there and we hiked in until it got a little too dark to keep going so we found a nice camp site and set up out tent, had some popcorn and went ot bed. The next morning we hiked int he rest of the way (about 4 miles total in) to the falls. Along the way there is another waterfall called Big Laurel Falls. Really cool! There are so many caves and sink holes in this area that these falls go into sink holes! It is really wild to see the water fall and not go anywhere or fill up! Virgin falls was similar although it came out of a cave and back into a sink hole! Impressive! We had a blast finding wild iris and other wildflowers along the trail. We also saw a wild boar!! Tory and Michelle being from Colorado got a kick out of hiking down in the beginning of the day and hiking up at the end of the day! they are used to hiking up mountains the beginning of the day and down at the end! haha!
Anyway a definite cool destination!
I also got to go fishing with Jamie on one of my last days! It was great! We took a geenue (sp?) canoe like boat out to the Caney Fork river and caught some trout on the fly. It was a gorgeous day and we had a blast! The water was really clear and we saw a slew of cranes and other fish through the clear water! Jamie saw a huge trout too. Said it was the biggest he has ever seen.
He took me out for a really nice dinner that night and that was nice!
The next day (Wednesday May 7th) we started loading the U-haul and got the bike and everything in. It took all day and so I decided (with encouragement from Mom and Dad) to leave the next morning to drive up to IN. It was a good thing because when I got on the road the next day the trailer did not pull well. It was overloaded and off balance fishtailing everywhere!! So scary! I thought i was going to flip the truck! So I pulled off the interstate and we proceeded to un-pack and re-pack the trailer. Ugh!
Got that taken care of and I left with no problems around 3:30PM!!
"Back home again in INDAINA...."
