Well, this was a nice idea! Sorry for coming along late, but took ill over the weekend and didn't have the motivation to even turn the computer on.
I found out about LOTM from my Father. He and I liked the same type of films and told me about it one night. I went out and rented the film and have been watching it regularly ever since.
I'm originally from Indiana (seems like more than a couple of us "Hoosiers" here... I'm from Evansville), but moved to Western NY at the age of six. I'm a retired Marine and now live with my wife (Cherie') and my 10 year old son in Fredericksburg, VA.
My wife's family lives (fortunately for us) in Western NC. As a matter of fact, only a 20 minute drive from Chimney Rock. We visit quite regularly and always make it a point to stop by CRP or DuPont Forest (beautiful places...). Her family likes to hike, so we use that to our advantage.
We've only attended the last Gathering, but had a wonderful time. I enjoyed it so much, I'm very much considering dressing in period attire this year. I could never take the place of DDL or Eric (as if anyone could... huh, ladies?) but I'll try not to embarass myself. We're looking forward to this June and hope that everyone who can make it, does. The only thing you might regret, is missing it. Oh yeah, and those TWO mile hikes! lolol.
Best Regards,
Marc
