Thanks for asking John. It was an extremely foggy, misty morning, had rained all night. The views of the mountain ranges were obscured. It was a nice course, nice traps, but still I had thought would be nicer. Roy Sislers Hunting Hills is nicer IMHO, with a beautiful course and scenery of the Chestnut Ridge of the Allegheny Mtns. I shot a WW Greener 12 ga sidelever with 30 barrels. I shot quite well on the first half of the course but then fell apart on the second half. Still, I shot my average, mediocre scores in the mid 60's--there were others far better shooting dedicated SC guns, and many others far worse. I had not seen my brother in 2 years because of covid, and his twin sons, both doctors, and my sister from Charlotte came also, so had a great family reunion. Went to the seafood buffett at the Omni Grove Park Inn in Ashville, what a magnificant place.
There had been devastating floods in that area about a week before and there was much devastation in the towns along the rivers and creeks. I wish I could have stayed longer and helped my brother and his church who were doing flood relief. I know Mike McKinney lives in that area and pray you did not have any problems.
