In the mountains, springtime brings the Ramp Festival as people gather for boiled Ramp, fried Ramp, Ramp soup, whatever. A group of us were climbing at Seneca Rocks, we stopped by a festival, a friend of mine bought a small bag of Ramps to take back to D.C. It was about 6 months before she could get the odor out of her car.
Truly an experience not to be missed.

Stan,
Despite my initial enthusiasm for a Road Trip, I'm thinking it might not be possible given my flight arrangements (which haven't been made yet, but I think are likely to be fairly inflexible once made).
I have to ask, though. What's a Ramp Festival? I know what a ramp is. I know what a festival is. I've just never thought of the two concepts going together! <vbg>
cheers, frank

West Virginia back country? Cleveland Ohio? Those are both on my potential drive back home after GFM... I wonder, would it be too late in the year to find a Ramp festival? Gotta show these foreign boys the real highlights!

Oh. I just re-read the original post. Didn't realize that Tan's flying into LA.
Never mind...
But, wouldn't a Road Trip to somewhere after GFM be fun? Think of the photo-ops!!

Hey. I'll be @ GFM. Are we talking Road Trip here?
Very enticing thought. Seeing the Heartland of America and all. Following the route of Tom Joad to Califiorn-i-ay.
Talk to me, Paul...
