Oh, you did say "that we can share", so some will not be disclosed (I also remember a song by Paul Simon - "Kodachrome"). ;-) My first visits were early '70's and took place in the Barrons Bridge/Blue Creek area. Our host worked at Pepperell in Opelika, so a bulk of the outdoor gear was made of steel 55 gallon drums - tables, floating pier, grills. Their cabin started out life as a single wide trailer perched on a lot that seemed to be on a 30% grade, and was enclosed as the years went on. They had a boat ramp - remember the slope here, that was difficult to use. We had only a 2-wheel drive truck, and to haul the boat up the gravel parts of the drive, we had one driver and everyone else jumping up and down on the bumper and in the bed of the truck. Add the required amounts of .22's an old 12 ga side by side, beer and bourbon for the adults and 8 tracks of Don Rickles (sp?), and you are ready for big fun....
