Asheville NC --Hooligans and Hiking --Oct 6

[Tartan Hiker]

As for the fall tourist stuff, I'm afraid that because of the extreme drought we've been in, I don't know if we'll have a fall color show this year. Around here I've seen large trees with brown leaves and some leaves are already beginning to drop.

Same here. Lots of brown leaves. The Sourwoods are looking good, however.
Tourist dollars are good for the economy, but certainly bad for the blood pressure if you need to get anywhere on time.
