Wild and Wonderful West Virginia

What a wonderful treat I received a new Cookbook from friends that visited here last month. Mary had written one and sent me a copy. Her Cookbook is wonderfully delightful. I am sitting in the Nook skipping through it. The Artwork is marvelous. The recipes most are quite new to me, so that is a FUN thing. My Sweetie is off Fishing again on the New River, just a day trip. Will be interesting as he and Phil picked the weekend of BRIDGE DAY. Bridge Day is the largest extreme sports event in the world and is held on the third Saturday in October every year in Fayette County, West Virginia (WV), USA. While he and Phil are simply going to canoe I imagine the hype will be a fun aside. October 21, 2006. We will be celebrating 27 years! The New River Gorge Bridge, 876' tall and the world's second longest single arch bridge, serves as the launch point for six hours (9am-3pm EST) of safe, legal BASE jumps. They will be fishing the Upper New River that will provide leisurely float fishing trips. Ha Lets hope they get some fish. Canada was a bummer in that respect this year. Our sons will be in; we will be splitting wood while my Sweetie plays. The couch and chair are in but we still await hubby’s recliner, which should be in by the end of the month. Post Script:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One son in, we went college food shopping then a wonderful lunch of Escargot etc. Return home to get a message the Fishing Trip was canceled due to high water on The New River. The water level last week 25 hundred Cubic Feet per second [CFS] now 10 thousand 700 now. Sweetie is safely home now we await other son and the WVU game.
