Day 4: Feedrock and on to Boone





Today is cool and overcast. After a fabulous breakfast (blueberry muffins, scrambled eggs and bacon, real Georgia grits, as well as toast, English muffins and homemade blueberry jam from Shiloh), we are planning the day. Martha is watching a princess video, Jim has gone off to the worksite and Matt and Ken are going to work on the camper. When Ken put the camper on the truck, he forgot to put the boards in the truck bed first, so the top of the camper is resting on the roof of the cab of the truck. Ken is afraid that the camper is rubbing the finish off the truck roof, causing serious damage, so he will raise the camper on it's jacks and put some boards under it to raise it off the truck. He and Matt have taken it down to the house site where there is some more level ground. Everything up here is built on giant boulders and nothing is very level.
Photos are of Jim and Kathy's garage and workshop (under construction), a neighboring house with it's "stone lawn" complete with lawn chairs (no, that's not a snow drift) and my attempt at capturing last night's sunset on my digital camera.
I will continue this post later today when Ken and I get to Boone and Appalachian State University.
