What an excellent way to spend your birthday! Sandy, the pics of this trip are just beautiful. I am glad you are having such a great trip and birthday, even if you didn't catch anything on this day. I never have luck with fishing either. Love the water and mountains there, and the beautiful white water!
I just love these updates you send, Sandy. You should be a travel writer. So interesting, with curious details, and cute pictures. Tennessee misses you and all is well here! Be safe and have fun!

Tom and I are a retired couple who live in Tennessee USA and love to travel, especially in Asia.
