Sometimes what we call gossip is hurtful…so I use the term humorously because I know some things that have happened around here the last couple of months that I wouldn’t put down on this forum. Having said that, we were sitting on the porch last Saturday morning and it was absolutely gorgeous out when all these sirens started going down Aska Rd. There were police and fire and rescue vehicles. Tim turned the scanner on right away (as opposed to waiting until things are settled down which he usually does) and we heard the dispatcher calling ‘lifeflight” schedules from all over north Georgia. Evidently, a rather large woman had fallen at the top of Stanley Creek falls and was unconscious! Now, they did give her appoximate weight and it makes me wonder how she got up there to begin with! Those falls are way back in the Rich Mountain wilderness area and not a lot of people even know they are there. We never did hear what happened and I hope she is okay.
