Can't help yall with any of your mileage problems,
But does anyone know of any good places to go fishing with no boat around Columbia. With gas going up I doubt I'll go home as much to go fishing and most of the landings that I know of always have a ton of people on them. And I've never been out to the lake, so I don't know whats out there.
**and if anybody sees a '89 dark red ranger 4x4 with a sticker on the back window on the driverside saying "Kiss this if you don't like my ranger" around the Columbia Area. Let me know...

I've been around (mostly for other duties)- I've hit several snags while "out" though.
These are the worst ones......
1-Seems like the "better" picnic shelters at Dreher have been taken for the dates desired (mostly for sites 5&6). I was told to call/check back and reconfirm- for the possibility that the parties may have altered thier plans on the locations/dates.
2- My sponsors/contacts for shows/events (dealers), have told me that there maybe a problem on funding-hosting.
....With all these crazy fuel prices, I'm wondering who or how many members may have problems with some travel.
Oh... I've also been working f/t as usual- plus meetings with Kenwood of North America, Bosch-GMBH (Blaupunkt) and a few others over some special buy-ins for a potential new shop in town.

You can rent kayaks at a place in Cayce called Adventure Carolina for $30 a day. I've also caught plenty of fish at the head of the Congaree where the Broad and Saluda come together. There are multiple access point for bank fishing right in between the Gervais St. and Knox Abbott Dr. bridges.
Another good spot is Cedar creek out at Congaree Natl Forest right outside Cola...if you can stand the mosquitoes It is a tributary that feeds into the Congaree, some beautiful country out there as well.

Wish I was closer so I could sell some material. However, on your way up from Florida you pass within 2 miles of my place off 95.
Any green thumbs in the bunch? I want to plant a couple trees next to my shop mainly for lanscaping but some shade would be nice. I dont know what kind I want. I want something quick growing but with a small root system so it doesnt bust up my newly poured cement.
Any suggestions?

I worked at a large nursery in HS/college for six years and it was always one of my favorites.
Be careful with trees with very shallow root systems, as soon as it gets some size, the first hurricane that gets close will blow it over.

Go try the Saluda river....it is fed by the lake murray dam. You can get to the East side of the river from Saluda Shoals State Park which costs $5 a day or the West side of the river is accessed by crossing the dam and is free. I go kayaking out there a lot and occasionally fish. The best fishing is in the spillway which you can access by foot but it is much easier to rent a Kayak for a day and go up river. The water is clear and there is a lot of good fishing to be had. If you are quiet enough, you may even catch a river otter or two playing in the water.
