Re: [at-l] The South AND BBQ request
Greetings,
Pig pen, cotter pin; ink pen, safety pin; State pen, straight pin. In sweet
home Bama, further description is necessary because they all sound the same.
On a *serious* note, somebody was singing the praises of some Carolina BBQ
on the list recently. Does anyone have a recommendation for BBQ along the
I-95/I-85 corridor in North or South Carolina I'll pass tomorrow from
Arlington, VA to Atlanta?
Trail related: I'm stoking calories, and sauce, for a section hike in
Mass/VT starting Monday.
Thanks,
Tim
