You could go grocery shopping in Franklin or visit the Hospital in Petersburg, that would be fun.

I should just bite the bullet and buy a fishing license seeing that the South Branch and the canyon is right behind the cabin.  Never could get excited about fishing, but I might have to give it a try.

I've told you how many times, if you go buy your license, I'll buy mine.  Hell, we'll both learn together.  That was the one thing I tried to learn from my grandpa, and never did before he died

I thought fishing was the reason you bought property over there.

Everyone around here seems like they have a camp or property over there or in Smoke Hole just for fishing/drinking trips.

No, I bought it as a base camp for backpacking trips more than anything.  I got tired of driving over 5 hrs, then getting out of my truck and hitting the trail. Now, I can go there at my leisure and head out on a trip fairly fresh, or hang out if the weather isn't all that great.

It's still there. I just haven't checked it out yet. Street parking right there and there's never an open spot when I drive by. It's on the list though.

Park around back where your favorite furniture store is and walk

Rainy day options:  Caverns, all both of them.  I've always wanted to do the extended private tours.
Mountain State Brewing for good beer.  I keep kegs of Amber Ale at home.




You most definitely need a fishing license.  Smoke Hole is a favorite of mine that is road accessible.  Head to Seneca creek with a fly rod for back country native brookies.

Do you have a canoe?  Smoke Hole and the Trough are a lot of fun.  'Specially with a fishing rod in hand.
