I always loved it when the Haiku-Off produced a bunch of non-haiku poetry. Shine on, you crazy diamonds.
Okay, okay, one more photo of James Rice’s gerbil, Speedy, and I promise this will be the last for a while. Here’s Speedy resting simultaneously atop the highest points of Kentucky, Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina. Thanks as always, James and Speedy!
Oh, yeah. I have a dim recollection of that crazy weekend. I was working briefly in Nashville, and wanted to get some more state high points. I think that weekend cost about $400 in gas, food & hotels. I also got to experience loosing the trail in Virginia, and hiking a couple of miles cross country through deep snow in dense forest. Speedy went along for the fun.
When taking these pictures, did you use a high-Speedy shutter?
Mt. Mitchell in North Carolina is in fact the highest point in the US east of the Mississippi river.
