I had a ridiculously delicious breakfast at Brother Junipers on the edge of the University of Memphis campus. Again, didn't seem like the best neighborhood. Rachel Ray featured this restaurant and I will put my ...

Heading South and into the sun. We left Asheville and drove back through the Smoky Mountains. The weather was completely different this time, foggy and rainy and absolutely amazing. It crazy how different one place can look depending on the weather. It was totally beautiful.

Once through the Smoky Mountains we headed back into Alabama ...

I am so grateful for this incredibly enjoyable trip- I think my years of being a fisherman has paid off since every time I stop I talk to the fisherman and give them literature....

Since I had to drive in a northish direction anyway, I figured I'd pack in an extra day of skiing on the way to his house at a ski area in Pennsylvania named Blue Mountain. Blue is probably the closest significant ski area to my parents...
