^^^ And we appreciate that you do take so many pics...

And how about adding the nice street lights to the overpasses like on 385 in Simpsonville...

REI just announced a new store for south Asheville. Would they build another one down here that close? EDIT: CT story link - http://www.citizen-times.com/apps/pbcs.dll...ID=200770508029

They are also up near TR Oriental at Roe Rd.

There is a Kilwin's in Hendersonville, NC - nice place, great sweets.

g-man - You account for close to 1/2 of all posts. When you were away - not much was posted. Glad to see you back.

Thanks RT!

The rails are finally coming up in TR - http://greenvilleonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/...359/1004/NEWS01 Work has started on the removal of the railroad line in Travelers Rest that will clear the way for the planned Tram-Trail project. According to Lee Polowzcuk, spokesman for Greenville County, the National Salvage & Service Corp. started the removal in Travelers Rest. They have four months to complete their work.

Sounds good.

Anyone have a list of the 10 restaurant owners that won't get another dollar from me??? I must also thank them personally...

'Project Apple' is supposed to bring 200 jobs and a $50 million investment (if I remember the numbers) to TR. Not really any big place for a press conference in TR....

Is this what g-man has been hinting at? Spill the beans g-man!

Greenville Online story about Carlton Owen's speech... http://greenvilleonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/...430/1004/NEWS01 The old train tracks will begin being removed in the next couple days, Owen said. From there, volunteers will be needed to clear debris during about three workdays, which are yet to be determined.

Reminder.... Event tonight offers 'big picture' on rails to trails http://greenvilleonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/.../701300432/1004 Learn more about the rail-trail linking Greenville, Furman University and Travelers Rest at a 5 p.m. session today at the university.

Marianna's is the roach coach.

Somebody craving Marianna???

Absolutely! Great idea!

I moved down from the Asheville area last summer - at that time there weren't any. Maybe in Charlotte?

I moved down to Travelers Rest from the Asheville area earlier this year. It is great! Like you said - downtown is very nice, but don't forget to see the north end of the county. From TR - I am close to 4 state parks. I still have the mountain views and commute to work in Hendersonville. I really enjoy the warmer weather. I never realized how much wind there was up there in NC until I left. The temps are about 5-10 warmer, but the lack of wind really makes the winter easier. Anyway - yeah, there's lots to do around here, and the cost of housing is much better than Asheville.
