We had an awesome time, did not ride near as much as we would have liked but we had a mission to find property  Grin

This is the cabin we stayed in for 4 nights  Cheesy



It was on the Little Tennessee River.



A inside view



The next few photos are of my brothers property that he is developing (40 acres of Mountain)





Getting one of the wells put in



View



Putting gravel down getting ready for Hurricane Chris



My old bike, I think it is very happy in the mountains  Grin




On a ride at a friend's mountain  Wink









Fishing the Lt'l Tennessee



Low clouds when Hurr Chris came by



Staying at my brothers cabin and can ride from there  Grin






















OK now this is what we found and BOUGHT!!! well we still have to close on it yet.

A fixer-upper on 10.44 acres  Grin





Front yard



4 creeks with waterfalls  Grin



It comes with a Jeepster comando (I think, we are buying as-is)







View from behind house



and it comes with a still and about 100 mason jars Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy



Views....can't wait to see it in the winter  Wink











trails and woods etc.  We hiked the boundary to find the survey markers and it took 4 hours  Shocked











When you drive to the top of the mountain there is a 360 view and 34,000 acres of US Forest lands with the Appalachian Trail going by.

Here is a map of the area

I'm jealous  Grin  Congratulations on your new place.  It reminds me a lot of where we rode in Virginia this summer.  Beautiful mountains, I bet the fall colors are a site to see.

Thanks for the nice comments  Wink

If anyone is interested in the area check out:

http://www.franklinnc.com/ 
and
http://www.maconnc.org/

Also my realtor is Danielle Serjan (828) 349-4700 of Unique Properties of Franklin, http://www.uniquepropertiesofnc.com/  she is from Miami and has lived in Frankin for 5 years.  She is a great person and hope to continue a friendship with her.
She went beyond on this deal and have noticed that most of the people up there will do the same.
Also Strangers go out of there way to say Hi Cheesy how are ya?

I know!  Don't you just hate it when you try to be friendly and say "hello" to someone and they look at you like you just busted their gut?

Yup, My zip code is Franklin but the township is called Burningtown there are just homes, farms, and churches, 12 miles north of the city limits, and the county is Macon.

I'd be more than happy to help out. We own a flooring store so If you need some flooring let us know and Im sure we can hook you up. Just wish I had more time off to go do stuff like that.

Franklin is a great area.   Have a couple friends in that area.  Keep up with the pics.  You know, Larry Csonka and some of the old Dolphins started a property developement up that way.  I think they called it Csonka Estates.
