: : Hello Mohicanlanders! We are leaving Thursday for Salem,VA to attend the Division II College Softball World Series and I was wondering if any of you good people are from this area or if any of you know anything about it. Thanks! And please give a cheer for University of Alabama in Huntsville Chargers!


: Hello Theresa:

: Salem, Va is a town which adjoins Roanoke, VA at the lower end of the Shenandoah Valley on Interstate 81. The mountains are a short distance away and I believe that Graves (or Smith) Mountain Lodge is near there. You may remember this as one of the sites in which they filmed DIRTY DANCING in the mid-1980's.

: Have a nice trip. Look forward to hearing your report upon your return.

Diana and Theresa,

And another of the sites where *Dirty Dancing* was filmed was near our very own Gathering locale, Lake Lure (beautifully visible from the "Chimney"). That's another flick we might want to few again, NOT that I'd be spending much time watching my brand spankin' new DVD of LOTM, before heading to MohicanLand, especially since this time around we'll be spending some time ON Lake Lure on Friday afternoon, thanks to Ann Colby!

And Theresa...I wish your daughter the best in the tournament also. Having been a high school and college softball player meownself (fast pitch pitcher) I KNOW what a thrill the crisp snap of a clutch catch can be. GOOD LUCK TO HER and her team!!!!

Diana S.
