Duggr’s Creek Falls — Blue Ridge Parkway, Linville Falls Parking Lot, North Carolina

The entire length of Dugger’s Creek is replete with nondescript falls similar to this one. You can take my word for it or go to the trouble of seeing for yourself, but I wouldn’t do that if I were you, and instead, take up the search for a restaurant that serves Lemon Ice Box Pie. I think that would be well worth your time, but it would be time consuming for sure, and you might be better served to make your own, that way you would at least be guaranteed to enjoy the entire pie in the privacy of your own home in your lifetime, which would be better by far than having them find your body in the bottom on some ravine, having driven off the road in heavy fog in your search for a restaurant serving Lemon Ice Box pie in the wee hours of the morning on some back road tracking down rumors of sources for Lemon Ice Box Pie.

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
