Wanderlust ... Arlo, As it happens I'm leaving Alabama at the end of Sept (off to Olso Norway) so if you swing south of Oak Ridge before then, make contact.
I love this South Tenessee / North Alabama country ... the Cumberland plateau / ridge - Nashville / Chattanooga / Knoxville triangle - in particular. Visited PA (Allentown / Bethlehem) on business last year, suprising beauty despite the industrial demise. Blogged some impressions after only 4 months in the country. http://www.psybertron.org/?p=1306 Regards Ian On 8/8/08, ARLO J BENSINGER JR <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > [Craig] > I recently heard this stand-up comic's definition of Pennsylvania > "Philadelphia > at one end, Pittsburgh at the other & Alabama in between." > > [Arlo] > Why, Craig.
