I can see it. One thing about the So...Cruelty, yes. I can see it. One thing about the South that I do love is the amazing display of life that thrives on the land here. I hear that there are richer ecosystems than that of the Piedmont and Southern Appalachians, but not many. You were lucky to have grown up in this part of the planet, and I can understand the odd pang of homesickness for it. Every time I wander into a cove hardwood forest on an Appalachian mountain I just end up sitting there and gawking at it, trying to soak it all in. I doubt there's a more beautiful setting on Earth. Maybe there is, but I haven't witnessed it yet.<br /><br />Did you never hike the Sosebee Cove Scenic Area near Blood Mountain? If not, you should go hike the trail through that patch of north facing cove hardwoods the next time you visit the old stomping grounds.James Robert Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17281049641681225389noreply@blogger.com
