I spend my evenings dancing or listening to music . I have been to about seven concerts since spring ! My friends and I pack snacks and a bottle of wine and find music in the nearby towns . We laugh and sing loud along with the bands .

Such a beautiful area, I have cycled some of the new river trail ( 100 miles or so in VA Sections) but never fished or camped there. Be safe and have adventures that create lifetime memories.

TV in the AC. In Austin Texas, it's too buggy and humid to be outside (most days) in summer
