Thanks for taking the time. Here in WNC we depend on other states to show the economic benefits and maybe these greedy ass repubs will jump onboard.
Not looking like NC will ever get past gerrymandering and every other act to keep power forever. Any that body thinks Virginia Foxx will allow the devils weed is tripping.
But moonshine and meth abounds all around.
Cherokee (legal on tribal land) is only about 20 away, but the damn local rural redneck cops hover around the boarder lines to “capture Hippies” like ICE does brown people.
Happy legal holidays to you.
Check out the 50 year anniversary release of “Wish you were here” yesterday. 3 disc set. Disc 2 are all Roger Demo’s and other takes with versions of songs that are really cool. Disc 1 are remasters and 3 is live. Disc 2 is awesome, my “Wish” is for a real blunt to hear it all. 😭 maybe someday. Local brew beer and wine will have to carry me through.
50 damn years!!!!!!!! Yes, I was a late sixties early seventies Hipper. Alive on original release.
Cheers!!🤜🏼🤛🏼
