"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Chimney Rock ParkHiked from the lowest trailhead in the park to gain about a thousand feet to the top of the gorge. They had closed off the trail along the cliffside-- however, my friend had come there with only one goal: to hike the cliffside trail where "Last of the Mohicans" was filmed. We found our way through and it turned out they had closed the trail due to unfinished repairs on a ten foot section of aluminum fence-- which I prefer were'nt there in the first place! I hope the state buys it up soon and does away with all the ugly fencing.

Hickory Nut GorgeI finally found a trail to access Rumbling Bald Mountain and associated peaks and summited three mountains in one hike: Rumbling Bald, Shumount Mountain, and Eagle Rocks.
