Thats good stuff Lilred!!!!! I get engrossed in reading local history every chance I get. In a book I found with the journal from George Washington when he was surveying land for lord Fairfax in the part of Wv where Im from he told of sleeping in the trees because of the wolves and cats on the forest floor below. He also complained of the going being slow because they were making their way across the top of the rhododendron sometimes eight feet above the ground because it was too thick to get through at the ground level.
