  • Hi Karen; I've been there, done that. Whitewater kayaking on the Chattooga River, riding my bicycle on the Swamp Rabbit Trail, hiking Table Rock, Paris Mountain, and Chattooga River corridor trails. Used to camp out along the Chattooga. I'd still like to do more great outdoors stuff while I'm still able to do it. Must remember to throw in a writing pad to record my inspirations. I'm a freelance writer.
