We saw Pilot Mountain and somewhere betwixt there and it our home, unseen to our eyes. I wished Jack and Rich and nameless others could have been there. Never enough time, to even stop and appreciate. We were being called by food and time.

I sure do wish I had been there too Truman!!! I hate missing times like these. I hope maybe this kind of trip might happen in the future and if so I will be there one way or another. It looks and sounds like it was so much fun.

I read somewhere that "Pilot Mountain" was the inspiration for the name "Mt. Pilot," which was a town they talked about in Mayberry on the old "Andy Griffith Show." :)

That would be correct Jeff from what I have always heard. Mt. Airy is close to Pilot Mountain so it would make sense. Siler City exists too and in fact is where Aunt Bea lived her final years in real life. Other places in North Carolina are also mentioned such as Winston-Salem, Charlotte, Raleigh and even Asheville.
