My last few trips through that neck of the woods were just before, during and after the 96 olympics. The were doing the Kayak races there and ruined my fishing anywhere near the Ocoee Damn.
I think I misspelled the River name. It is the Hiwasee River. There is alot of beautiful scenery there since it is in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
A funny thing happened during that time too. I was able to get out of a speeding and tailgating ticket.
A County Mounty pulled me over and asked me how fast that I think that I was going. I told him that I wasn't sure but I was in control.
He also told me that I was following too close to the car in front of me and in his eyes, I was tailgating. I apologized and told him that where I was from they don't call it Tailgating but they call it "Drafting".
Realizing that I was a Nascar fan, he tore up the ticket and told me to have a nice day.[cool]
