Ok, scratch the Smokey MTS. We never got our call, so we need to stay in cell phone range. The cell phone will not work in the Smokey Mts, so... we decided to head out to GA.
We have an old friend there that we haven't spoken to in over a decade! I happen to have her mom's number, and she got us in contact with her.
Turned out that Cherie had brain surgery in 2000. She had a problem where her artery was in wrong spot and direction, and where it connected to a vein it caused pressure finally pressing against her optic nerve. The dr told her that if she did nothing she would just fall down dead one day with no warning. There were a couple of experimental treatments available, but the only sure way to cure it was to have her right temperal lobe removed. She has short term memory problems from the surgery, but otherwise she is doing well. It was really good to see her.
Here is a shot of what Buger thinks of GA. She really likes the fact that we are leaving the a/c off even though it is a bit warm...
