Graves Mountain Rally August 29-September 2, 2019

The main dish is Eastern NC BBQ Pork, and it goes quickly! While not pictured, there was less than three cups left (one of each flavor) of the Apple, Blueberry and Cherry cobblers. About two cups worth of the Peach cobbler, so I may skip it next year and go with half-pans of the Blueberry and Cherry.

I'm betting if you had worked the Georgia rally, that you'd have left-overs of the Blueberry and Cherry:

- But your Peach cobbler would be GONE!

Can't pull off the trip this year, but sure would like to make the trip next year (God willing and all).

How long is the drive (+/-) to Graves Mountain from Madison (off Rte 15/29)?

Yea with all that was going on I missed it too. From Madison looks like a hop, skip and a bump.

Attendance was noticeably down. Pity, as the weather was very good save Sunday night where the rain was noteworthy. Still, it was much better weather than some years, whether rain or drought and heat.

Few sales at the swap meet too. But this Rally isn't one for major swap activity regularly.

We still had a great time. I badly need to upgrade my drive train, so I can do more trail riding.

But, I am slowly making an Outdoorswoman out of my city-slicker Lady, so that is good.
