[smosey wales]

You pay a high compliment both to Virginia and Lockn to travel from Austin for this!

At Lockn, if you look over the mountain ridge to the west you'll be sighted upon Sam Houston's birthplace at Timber Ridge just outside Lexington. Your travels to the southwest of Lockn may take you near Austinville, birthplace of your town's namesake. Welcome back!

Unfortunately no, but I have a large group of friends going! I so wish we were headed there, but the husband doesn't like bluegrass. Next year I'm going and he gets to go to Summer Camp with his friends. Have fun with the Wisco kids!

I'm well aware of how ridiculous it sounds.  We made a deal and he held up his end of the bargain.  We are picking up couple more friends in G'boro on the way up.
