Under the board
Title:  Under the board
Description:  The stack train takes the high green and blows past. I was going to try to chase him to Sale Creek, but it proved fruitless. So I went to Krystal, picked up a bag of belly bombers-theyre like a southern White Castle-and headed back for the family homestead in Jasper GA. Except for the crappy weather, a good day.
