Well it's happening! The prese-rvation for some of Hector and Susie's property is becoming a reality. The protection of the cascading falls which drop a couple of hundred feet from the plateau on H&S's were one of the topics addressed in a meeting held at their place on Tuesday(23rd). Several members of the Tennessee Parks and Greenways Foundation came over to provide information regarding conservation easements, the benefits, and answer any questions or concerns folks may have had. This was also an opportunity for the foundation to encourage H&S's neighbors; who were invited, to investigate the option and join the effort to preserve this fabulous section of an awesome geologic formation, the Cumberland Plateau.
Another gathering will be held in which more folks from the surrounding area will be invited in order for them to learn the benefits about preserving their lands through conservation easement.

This is my favorite blog BY FAR on the internet. You certainly get around.
