    I'd drive for a couple of hours to hang out at such a grand looking affair.

    We did drive a couple of hours. We were staying in Pidgeon Forge, TN for our honeymoon and made the drive through the mountains. A lovely drive to be sure, although it was exhausting for me as I'm used only to large flat expanses of road. But it was definitely worth it.

    Thumbs up

    Great set of photos Matt! I really like your new doublet too. One question, what is the medal hanging on your watch chain?

    I am looking at that weekend as a possibility because of the festival. Also want to get over to the transportation museum in Spencer. Hope to have better luck then the "old 97" in getting to Spencer.

    There's about 4 hours between Franklin and Spencer. You wouldn't be starting from Monroe, VA, would you?

    I have rarely desired to see North Carolina again (my ex-wife got the whole state in the divorce), but it usually happens right after considering pictures / articles / information about the museum or its functions.

    Matt, as always, you look dashing. Your lovely wife looks, well, lovely, and it looks as if a congenial good time was had by all. What more does one wish from a Burns Night?

    I don't think she got the whole state. If she did, why do I still have to pay my own property tax?
