We left at 3:30 PM to catch the "4th of July party to benefit the beautification of West Asheville". We ended up in Black Mountain at around 8:00 PM for the fireworks... still easy to park when we arrived but it got quite busy after that. I wasn't sure you were heading there and didn't have your number with me Art (Message edited by artswork99 on July 04, 2009) georgie_boy Senior Member Username: georgie_boy Post Number: 834 Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Sunday, July 05, 2009 - 3:09 am:    No fireworks, but lots of loud music and karaoke singers...groan!!

To think the militias and rag tag soldiers used muzzle loaders back in the day, with little provisions and often without shoes. I recommend David McCoullough's 1776 as a great informative read. (I prefer the audio version). A ripping good tale! wideload Intermediate Member Username: wideload Post Number: 142 Registered: 6-2003 Posted on Tuesday, July 07, 2009 - 4:21 pm:    In unrelated news... There was a back-to-back Alembic sighting in Monterey at the city's Fourth extravaganza. The bass player for The Money Band had a nice Epic 5 string, which was followed by my Rogue. And the soundman claimed to have an '83 Distillate!
