Hello,

Love is in the air! air!

Ashley and her husband Brian live in Bryson City with their two boys Evan, 13 & Owen, 9. A typical boy mom, she chases sports and school activities. She has a passion for Swain County and pretty things.

I love words. After years of being in the print industry, I find that I look up words often. Simple, complex doesn’t make a difference. Even for this issue, I looked up the word love in the Webster dictionary. Not because I don’t know the word, let’s be honest, I LOVE to use the word; but because the nerd in me enjoys seeing the proper way to use it. Did you know the word has over 20 definitions? And by all definitions of the word it is versatile and extremely complex. This is why throughout this edition you will find Love being used in very different ways. From hiking the Appalachian Trail and self love, to finding ways to show others you care. As a Mom, wife and business owner, I often struggle with finding the time to “show the love.” Some days I feel like it’s a juggling act and I am just trying to remember which balls not to drop. If I do somehow, by some rare chance, remember all of the things, and everyone in my life feels I have shown them love, you can guarantee the person in the mirror has a smile. On gray winter days it can be hard to feel self love, which is why in this issue, Jim Casada dives into beating the “Mollygrubs” which is an Appalachian term for the winter blues, with suggestions that spark intrigue. His ideas have helped me to put a winter coat on these Florida roots and made me get outside. I am glad I have. With ideas from wellness, health and faith I hope you enjoy, dare I say “love” this edition.

COVER STORY

Love of the Appalachian Trail

Angelia “Angie” Rogers is an avid outdoor enthusiast. Her outdoor hobbies include hiking, backpacking, mountain biking, and whitewater kayaking. Originally from Charleston, South Carolina, she moved to Western North Carolina in 2016 to pursue a life outside. She is a mother of two college-aged children. Angie works as a nurse, writer, trail guide, photographer, and a SOLO Wilderness Medicine and Survival Skills instructor. If you don’t find her at work or on the water or in the woods, then she is traveling with her partner Shane around the continental US in their off-grid converted van.

T

he date is set and drawing near. You are giddy with anticipation and excitement. Attention to every detail has been addressed. You have the perfect attire waiting to be donned on this special day. You have a constant smile glued to your face. Rain may be forecasted, but you are not concerned. It is all part of the adventure. Your every thought revolves around this day. This day that will change your life forever. This day you will dress in that perfect outfit. You will lace up your favorite hiking shoes. You will thread your arms through your backpack straps. With a click of the hip belt, all of your belongings for the next 6 months will be on your back. Trekking poles in hand, you embark on your hike up Springer Mountain; the start of your dream begins. Your marriage with the Appalachian Trail starts today. Continued On Page 8

Cover Story | Love the AT Continued from Page 7 For months, maybe even years, you have dreamed of hiking all 2,185 miles of the Appalachian Trail, the longest hiking-only footpath in the world. You are in love with the AT. You imagine the person you will become after walking through 14 states from Springer Mountain in Georgia to Katadin, Maine. Every book you have read is related to the Appalachian Trail and hiking. You walk through the grocery store, gathering supplies for tonight’s dinner. However, you are side tracked by freeze-dried foods that one day you will carry on your back. You stop spending money on anything not related to your hike because this trip will cost you a minimum of $6,000. Saving every penny is a must. You spend hours wandering through outfitter stores, noting the weight of each item. Your goal is a 15-pound base pack weight.

Planning for the AT

Planning for your thru-hike is literally like planning the wedding of your dreams. • Step 1 – Set a budget. The average cost of a thruhike is $1,000 per month, and most hikes take six months to complete. • Step 2 - Get inspired. Not that you are lacking in any inspiration, but researching products and reading about other thru-hike adventures can help prepare you for what is to come. • Step 3 - Pick a date. Northbound thru-hikers pick a starting date in February or March. • Step 4 - Choose your venue (route). There are 3 main ways to complete a thru-hike: Northbound, Georgia to Maine; Southbound, Maine to Georgia; Flip-flop, hiking the trail in any sequence you choose. • Step 5 - Start your registry. Make a gear list. • Step 6 - Create a website and hash tag. Most hikers keep a trail journal and post pictures on Instagram to allow family and friends to follow their journey. • Step 7 - Purchase attire. Dress for success by buying layers to accommodate different temperatures and climates. • Step 8 - Figure out the details. For example, how you will get to the start of the Appalachian Trail and where to mail supplies along the way. • Step 9 - Buy gear. While purchasing your gear, keep a close check on your total pack/gear weight. • Step 10 - Acquire license. No actual license is needed to complete an AT thruhike; however, registering with the Appalachian Trail Conservancy is recommended. You will join 3,300 other AT thru-hikers all starting their journey to Maine in February and March. Only half will make it to Harper’s Ferry, the trail’s “half-way” point. Less than a quarter will summit Katadin before it closes by October 15. Some will leave the trail due to sickness or injury. Others leave for family obligations. Others leave because completing the trail is 100% a mental challenge. Many will come back and

8

complete their journey at a later date. Because once you fall in love with the Appalachian Trail, it is forever a part of you. You will compare every hike following your AT thruhike to the Appalachian Trail. You may even come back and hike the AT again and again. It is a trail like no other. It was the dream child of Benton MacKaye in 1921 and completed by Myron Avery in 1937. The AT was never intended to be a long thru-hiking trail, but that intention changed in 1948


when Earl Shaffer walked the entire trail from Georgia to Maine. Emma Rowena Gatewood, known as Grandma Gatewood, was the first female to solo the Appalachian Trail at the age of 67 in 1955. During your hike, you will make not only lifelong memories but also lifelong friendships. You easily bond over

your love of the Appalachian Trail. This love has been known to flourish. Tanis and Isaac Deal, Bryson City locals, met during their AT thru-hike on April 23, 1997, at the Fontana Dam Resort, 163 miles into their hike. For the remaining 2,000 miles they hiked together. June 11, 1997—they married. Their wedding ceremony took place in Grayson Highlands State Park on the Appalachian Trail, forging their union of love of the trail and love of each other. If you want to hike some of the AT while in the Bryson City area, you can easily access the Appalachian Trail at the Nantahala

Outdoor Center in the Nantahala Gorge. For a 360-degree view of the Nantahala Forest, hike the AT from Tellico Gap to the Wesser Bald Fire Tower, a 3-mile round trip hike. If you are interested in supporting a thru-hikers dream of completing the Appalachian Trail,

become a trail angel. Trail angels are literally angels to thru-hikers by doing kind deeds. Small gestures like offering a cold beverage, fresh fruit, or a hot meal can quickly change a hiker’s day. A trip to the local grocery store, a hot shower, or the use of your washer and drier can rejuvenate the weary hiker. A warm bed in your guest room on a stormy or snowy day can literally change this thru-hikers destiny. If you see individuals with a backpack and an AT thru-hiker tag dangling from the pack, stop and say hi. Offer to help in anyway you can. Wish them success in their adventure, for the love of the Appalachian Trail runs deep and their love of the AT may become your love of the Appalachian Trail.

Meeting & Beating the Mollygrubs

Bryson City native Jim Casada is a widely published freelance writer whose work has appeared in more than a hundred regional and national magazines. He has written, co-authored, or edited more than three dozen books. His latest effort, due out from the University of Tennessee Press in late 2020, is A Smokies Boyhood and Beyond: Mountain Musings, Memories, and More.

T

his is the time of year when it’s all too easy to find yourself suffering from depression. Mountain folks traditionally have had a lot of ways to describe the low spirits brought on by gray, grim days, inclement weather, short days partnered with long nights, and what most would agree is the most miserable time of the year in the Smokies. These descriptions include “being down in the dumps,” suffering from “the miseries,” catching “cabin fever,” or my favorite, having the “mollygrubs.” The Dictionary of Smoky Mountain English, which delves deeply into mountain expressions and ways of speech, defines mollygrubs as “ill temper, sulkiness, despondency, vague unwellness.” Mollygrubs are as common as pig tracks in late winter, and for my money “vague unwellness” pretty well gets to the heart of matters. You can’t pinpoint what’s wrong, but both your mind and your body suggest that something’s not quite the way it should be. My Grandpa Joe, who lived on the banks of the Tuckasegee just east of downtown Bryson City, wasn’t much given to getting the blues or being down in the dumps, but he recognized the potential problems associated with this season of the year. He’d gripe a bit about being tired of rain and snow, reckon the weather wasn’t

“fittin’ for man or beast,” and say that “the miseries have laid holt of me.” He also often commented that it was a blessing that February was the shortest month of the year because “a body couldn’t stand any more of it.” Yet at heart Grandpa was an optimist, and he never spent much time being down. “It doesn’t do anyone much good to complain,” he would say, and he would set about shaking off the mollygrubs by traveling down any of a number of paths to joy. He might indulge in a spell of tale telling, suggest it was time for the two of us to do some “dreaming and scheming,” or pull out the latest Sears & Roebuck catalog for a wishful gander. If the weather was half decent we’d get outside, maybe just to take a walk, do some late-season squirrel hunting, look for a dogwood fork suitable for crafting a sling shot, or possibly cobble together a rabbit gum. Most of those simple yet satisfying pursuits now belong to a world we have largely lost, but there are opportunities aplenty which beckon while offering an escape from the doldrums. Here’s a glimpse at some recommended ways to meet the mollygrubs head on Continued On and come out a winner. Page 12

Seasonal Flair | Beating the Mollygrubs Continued from Page 11

Follow trails to tombstones

There are few finer ways to soothe the troubled soul, touch hands with the past, or simply spend some time in quiet contemplation than a walk around a cemetery. You’ll find deeply moving epitaphs, stories of valor as well as ones of abject sorrow, beautiful craftsmanship on markers, and a sense of reverence for our forebearers. There are scores of cemeteries scattered across the Swain County landscape—some neglected, others almost impossibly remote, and still others places of rare beauty. You might want to visit some of the numerous cemeteries along Highway 441 as you make your way along that route from Cherokee headed towards Gatlinburg. Or search for the grave sites of historically prominent individuals who once called Swain County home such as Dr. Ellen Black Winston or musician Red Smiley, hike to remote and largely forgotten sites such as the three graves far up Hammer Branch or one of the two cemeteries on Indian Creek, or visit the Bryson City Cemetery overlooking the town. It’s a showplace in many ways as well as being a mute testament to the town’s history. Scores of prominent local leaders from yesteryear are buried there. If you become enamored of this activity, you might well want to acquire the best available guide on the subject, The Cemeteries of Swain County, North Carolina. It is published by the Swain County Genealogical and Historical Society and while not complete or without errors, it is a remarkably comprehensive work involving countless hours of loving labor from numerous volunteers.

Read a book- or several On a personal basis, few things bring me greater pleasure than some relaxing hours spent in a comfortable chair with a book in hand. Mind you, as a book author I’m decidedly biased on this matter, but escaping through turning pages is a pure delight. If the book happens to have been written by a local author, and there are lots of them, so much the better. Maybe at some point in the future I can offer fairly comprehensive coverage of authors with Bryson City links, but for now I’ll leave it to you and maybe a bit of guidance from the good folks at the Marianna Black Library. Having grown up next door to the woman for whom the library is named, and given the fact that my mother served as librarian for a decade, I have an abiding love affair with the library.

Hiking to waterfalls Waterfalls generally evoke thoughts of the heat of summer, dipping toes in cool water, and lush vegetation embracing the water. Yet waterfalls, which abound in the rugged terrain around Bryson City, can have great appeal in the heart of winter. For the photographer, there’s no finer time to get a full shot of the phenomenon. In periods of bitter cold, ice formed on the edges of the main flow and anywhere the water splashes can make spectacular sights. For waterfalls off trail, bushwhacking is easier and you don’t have to worry about snakes or yellow jackets. Similarly, briars and entangling vegetation is less of a problem. Waterfall photo by : Jim Casada


Bushwacking Waterfalls are by no means the only destination of appeal to those who like to venture off trail. Winter is the ideal time to look for old home places in the Park, search for appealing types of vegetation (think the purple leaves of the puttyroot orchid, the shiny red and green of galax, or rhododendron leaves curled up like green cigars when it is really cold), or see for distances which is impossible when trees are in full leaf. There are scores of options, but one which is convenient and offers abundant opportunities is Noland Creek. The trail (actually a roadway) runs through numerous old home places, and where those are readily obvious thanks to hallmarks of the human presences such as boxwoods, leaving the roadway for a bit of wandering can produce all sorts of surprises.

The appeal of swinging bridges

Swinging bridges have a special enchantment no matter what the season, but in winter if you stand on one and stare down at the water for a time, gradually it seems as if it is the bridge, not the stream, which is moving. The bounce and slight sensation of uncertainty thanks to balance issues always makes swinging bridges seem to be an adventure, and youngsters absolutely love them. Two which are easily available are the one crossing the lower Nantahala River in the lower end of the Gorge and a longer one across the Little Tennessee River in the Needmore area (or it can be reached from lower Brush Creek Road as well).

Winter trout fishing

Thanks to vastly improved equipment, notably insulated waders, seasons which never close (this is true for Park waters and some but not all state streams) and the immensely popular and successful delay harvest stocking program, today’s mountain fisherman can be astream at any time. That includes winter, and the season actually has much to appeal to the angler. There’s far less competition from others than is the case in warmer months. Casting becomes a bit easier thanks to streamside trees and bushes being bare. Stealth and the need for lengthy cast become lesser factors because of streams normally being at full flow. Then there’s always the possibility of making a meaningful connection with a lunker brown trout. Regularly some of the finest trophies from area streams are landed during the winter, and I once watched an angler enjoying remarkable success while fishing Deep Creek in a driving snow. In short, rather than reclining in an easy chair or becoming a couch potato, if you are a fisherman why not spend a few delightful hours in the middle of a winter’s day casting? There are countless other ways to beat the mollygrubs— maybe just a long walk on a Park trail enjoying the splendor of solitude; perhaps some planning and perusing of seed catalogs thinking ahead spring gardening; undertaking some type of craft project; launching a hobby which might last a lifetime; taking a stroll in the aftermath of a soft snow (there’s no finer time to “read” signs and learn about the wildlife around you); or indeed options limited solely by the range of your personal creativity. One thing is certain though. In winter, as in all seasons, Bryson City and the Great Smokies offer endless appealing options for the active mind and active body.

FINDING AND LOGGING A GEOCACHE:

1.

Click on the desired geocache to get information such as size, terrain, level of difficulty, description, hints and comments from other geocachers who have come and gone. (Beware: Some hints give away the farm.)

THE PERFECT BLEND OF TECHNOLOGY & THE GREAT OUTDOORS By Michele Robert Poche

BILLED AS THE WORLD’S LARGEST TREASURE HUNT, GEOCACHING IS A REAL-WORLD OUTDOOR GAME, USING GPS-ENABLED DEVICES LIKE SMARTPHONES AND TABLETS. It gets its name from geo (earth) and cache (a hiding place). First appearing around the year 2000, geocache locations are now estimated at more than 2 million worldwide. That means you and your family are never far away from starting your own hunt!

GETTING SET UP:

THINGS TO REMEMBER:

P

• Geocaches come in all shapes, sizes, and difficulties. One might hang from a tree at eye level, and the next might be magnetized to a pole only a foot off the ground.

E

• Some contain a little trinket within them, such as a button, a coin, etc. Feel free to take the item and replace it with something comparable of your own.

“Not all who are me wander are lost = S- Uonknown just geocaching.” 14

• It’s best (and more fun!) to hunt in pairs or even small groups. If you’re ever uncomfortable with the location of a geocache, move on to the next one.

4 WAYS TO

SHOW YOU CARE

T

By Michele Robert Poche

here are many reasons to say “I love you” to the special people in our lives: because it’s a new year, because it’s Valentine’s Day, and because it’s just the right thing to do, isn’t it? The question is how to say it. Not to worry. Here at Inspire Health, we’ve got you covered. 1. TIME TRAVEL. If your schedule permits, why not travel back to the place where you first met, kissed or, if you’re married, got engaged? In every relationship, there are dozens of special “firsts.” The key is finding the one that is the most meaningful for you and reliving it together. Talk about it when you’re there.

16

You’re sure to remind each other of things that were long forgotten. It’s almost impossible not to smile when immersed in the happy memory that first brought you together. 2. UNPLUG. Electronics are everywhere — they’re in our homes, cars, pockets, purses and bare hands almost every minute of the day. They’re also on just about every dining table in the country. Unless you’re on call with the hospital, you can probably afford to have a meal without the interruption of a ringtone. Put it away and pay attention to the person in front of you. They will appreciate it more than you know.

3. CHANGE YOUR SHOES. Try looking at life from a different perspective. Maybe he’s a big outdoorsman but you’ve never spent a night in a tent. Or she’s a theater lover but you’ve never even seen “Cats”. It’s time to put your interests second. Make a plan to do something from his or her favorite list of pastimes. Worst case scenario? You make them happy, even if you didn’t enjoy the activity. Best case scenario? You now have a new hobby you can enjoy together. 4. AGREE TO DISAGREE. Not every conflict needs a resolution. It takes two people to make a relationship — two different people, with different backgrounds, points of view and opinions. So there will be spats. And arguments. And full-on, knock-down, drag-out fights. It’s important to know the difference. Arguing about toothpaste brands or how much to feed the dog just isn’t worth the trouble. Make the effort to concede here and there as a peace offering.


Faith | Love is a Verb

Love is a Verb

Dr. Scott Bjerkness is a chiropractor at Smoky Mountain Chiropractic in Bryson City and loves the Lord, his wife and his kids. He enjoys sharing the truth about health and sharing the gift of healing through chiropractic care.

F

or God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love and of a asound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7. There is an old DC Talk song that is entilted “Love is a Verb.” It talks about words coming easy but it is by our actions that we see love. In the “love chapter,” 1 Corinthians 13, of the bible, love is described not in sentiment or sexuality but in difficult words such as patience, kindness, and not keeping a record of people wronging you. Love is not self serving, it builds people up. Christ wants his followers to be known by their love. The bible goes as far as to say that we don’t really even know God or love if we are not being kind or gracious and building up our fellow believers in Christ. In 1 John 3:14-18 we see the ultimate example of love acted out by Christ dying for us and we are encouraged to do the same, to help those in need and to give our lives for others. Ulti-

mately we are told that we have the proof of love and life if we love people, if we hate we are wrapped up in death. To choose life over death we must choose love over hate. Let’s share the truth in love. The truth needs to be proclaimed and displayed by speaking with love and living our life in love. How do we display love to people in which we disagree, or with people who have harmed us or our loved ones? We do it through the power of God, being always in prayer and forgiving one another in love. Wow, tall order, but remember we cannot muster it up on our own! God said, “not by might, not by power, but by my Spirit says the Lord Almighty.” (Zechariah 4:6) One last thing: What are we going to do (that is out of the ordinary) to show that we love? (hint: let’s follow God’s loving ways)

FOR A HEALTHY STATE OF MIND

T

By Anja Springthorpe

here could not be more truth to the statement “You are what you eat.” And in fact, we should extend this to “You feel how you eat.” It is now well established that our food choices can significantly affect our mood and may even play a role in the development of mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression and even addiction. The foods we consume nourish our brain with energy and nutrients. A balanced and varied diet including fruits, vegetables and wholegrains maintains healthy brain function and supports a healthy, happy mind.

It is now well established that our food choices can significantly affect our mood and may even play a role in the development of mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression and even addiction.

BRAIN BOOSTING NUTRIENTS: Omega-3 fats.

The brain is made up almost entirely of omega-3 fatty acids and deficiency is associated with mental disorders. Because the human body cannot produce these fats, we have to ensure adequate dietary intake to provide the building blocks for a well working brain. Aim for oily fish (salmon, herring, mackerel) twice a week. Seeds and nuts also contain omega-3 fats and should be a daily feature on your plate.

18

Tryptophan.

This amino acid is required to produce the mood-regulating neurotransmitter serotonin. Low levels of serotonin can trigger or worsen mood disorders including depression. Tryptophan-rich foods include nuts, seeds, tofu, cheese, red meat, chicken, turkey, fish, oats, beans, lentils and eggs.

B-vitamins.

B-vitamins are vital for brain health. Fruits, vegetables, meat and legumes are all sources of B-vitamins and a varied diet will ensure sufficient B-vitamin intake. Alcohol depletes B-vitamins and should only be consumed occasionally in moderation.

Curcumin.

The compound that causes turmeric’s bright color has been found to alleviate symptoms of mental disorders and protect against depression. Add generous amounts of turmeric to soups, curries, dressings, sauces and smoothies.

Avoid junk food.

Research correlates junk food consumption with a higher risk of mental problems. This may be due to the fact that junk food often is nutritionally inadequate as well as high in saturated and transfats, both of which have negative effects on mental well-being.

Dennis White Hometown: Bryson City, NC

Favorite thing about Bryson City: Look outside, it’s beautiful. What one thing would you suggest to a visitor as a “Must Do”? Deep Creek, its an easy trail. What’s unfortunate is that most visitors won’t get the opportunity to see most of our beauty. We are surrounded by some of the most beautiful topography in this country. Favorite Bryson City Christmas tradition? Well I’m not sure it’s a tradition, but the snowflakes over the river really highlight the beauty of downtown. 22

Publishers Note: There was a full interview with Dennis, in his home on December 18, 2019. In early 2020 Dennis lost his battle with cancer. Our favorite part of interviewing Dennis was no matter how many ways a question was asked his answer was the same; in his opinion, Bryson City / Swain County was the most beautiful place on earth. He was champion of this little town for tourism and development and he will be missed. For the full interview check out: brysoncitymagazine.com
