Virginia Creeper Trail Bike Ride and Grayson Highlands Dayhike on the Appalachian Trail
Went to Grayson Highlands State Park in Virginia, Sept 6th through 8th, with some hiking companions. We did the 17 mile bike ride on the Creeper Trail to Damascus on Friday. The next day we hiked about 10.5 to 11 miles along the Appalachian Trail. The hike included the climb to the top of Mt. Rogers, which at 5729 feet, is the highest summit in the state of Virginia. Sunday morning we did a shorter hike and then checked out the Visitor Center.

Baby bears outside Damascus, VA
We drove up just after the 3 baby bears had crossed the road, then the mom crossed behind us. The mom went up the hill and the cubs were not able to make it. Sorry for the poor quality and annoying talking in the video, but it was amazing to see the mom desperately trying to get to her babies how they cried out for her. Don't worry, they all made it up the hill safely and lived happily ever after.

Kinsey Greene- Bound For The Promised Land, Laurel Bloomery Fiddlers 2013
Bound For The Promised Land- Kinsey Greene competes on folk song in Youth Competition at the 88th Johnson County Old Time Fiddlers Convention at the Old Mill Music Park in downtown Laurel Bloomery, Tennessee on 24 August 2013.
The 2014 convention (same location) will be on August 22 and 23, 2014.
Most folks call this the Laurel Bloomery Fiddlers Convention since it has been held for the last twenty-two years at the Old Mill Music Park in Laurel Bloomery (Johnson County), Tennessee. The first fiddlers convention was held in the Johnson County High School auditorium in Mountain City in 1925 and there has been one held somewhere in the county every year since. This convention is far smaller than the one in nearby Galax, Virginia, during early August but the Laurel Bloomery convention one is far older- possibly the oldest in the southern Appalachian region. The genre in competition is strictly old time although you will probably hear more bluegrass in the campground pickin' sessions (Galax has both bluegrass and old time competition).
The convention is hosted by Jackie Warden at her Old Mill Music Park and is produced and staffed by her many friends in the old-time music community from Watauga and Ashe County in North Carolina, Washington County in Virginia, Johnson County in Tennessee, and further afield in the surrounding southern Appalachians.

Starting time of competitions on Friday, 22 August 2014, and Saturday, 23 August 2014, is nominally 6 PM but some entertainment performances may begin earlier. There has never been any set order for the competitions in the past. Competitions are taken as they line up with bands and individuals mixed. Band competitions tend to be later- many after 10 PM. Friday night tends to be over before mid-night but Saturday sometimes goes into Sunday AM.
