New to the group, I am from Louisville, Kentucky and I am a fairly avid outdoors person. I love to backpack, hike, kayak and just about anything else outdoors. I don’t get out as often as a I like but a couple of friends I served with in the Marines when I was young usually get out at least once or twice a year for an adventure. We usually are in the Great Smoky Mountains area of Tennessee and North Carolina, but I have also hiked/backpacked in Colorado, Wyoming. Every now and then my friends and I do a bigger trip, this past Summer was the West Highland Way in Scotland.

Welcome, glad to have you aboard! A friend of mine did the West Highland Way a few years ago, sounds like a pretty interesting hike.

Several of us from here did the WHW in 2016 together. Started from Drymen and ended in Ft. William.
I went to grade school in Louisville, and college at U of L, many years ago.
Welcome to the nut house. Now, how do you feel about brussel sprouts? Okra? Beer or bourbon?

Welcome to the nut house. Now, how do you feel about brussel sprouts? Okra? Beer or bourbon? Like beer, bourbon tends to cause me to wake up the next morning in strange place without recollection, brussel sprouts is a big NO, had okra yesterday in some venison and vegetable soup. i actually live in Oldham out your just Northeast of Louisville, but if your not local, no one would know where it is so I always put Louisville. Thanks for the welcome.

Welcome! Zeke didn’t quite give you the whole intro quiz. We also need to hear how you feel about kilts, beets, and Vegemite (especially behind the ears).
