Flying High
by Courtney Sells
My family and I aren’t big “lake-goers”.

We were the type who stayed at home
and napped on Sunday afternoon. All of
my friends had boats, but I’d never actu-
ally been “in the lake”. This all changed
one afternoon.
It was a regular Sunday morning. I got

up, went to church service and then
Sunday school. One of my friends,
Ciara Huitt and I were sitting on a bench
outside of my mom’s classroom talking
like friends do. I then asked her what
she was doing that afternoon. Of course,
her reply was “I am going to the lake”.
The last five words shocked me most.
They were “do you want to come?” I
felt shocked, surprised, excited and
happy all at the same time. I had never
been on more than a boat ride. At first
that’s all I thought it was, but little did
I know that it would be more than just
a ride. ing down over the scene, I thanked God for creating me. It was just
like a dream, a fairy tale, and a wish - a wish that it would never stop.
I went home, ate a sandwich, put on my swimsuit, and packed my towel It was just me and the Lord’s creation. It was like we were dancing
and sunscreen. Apparently my mom thought it was more, so I packed together upon the beautiful water. Ciara looked over at me and asked
it all. I was ready to go right at 12:30 PM. The Huitt’s arrived at our if I was scared? I told her I was scared, but not anymore. After another

all of our stuff and then went to the dock to get gas. Once we got out
of the no wake zone, we started picking up speed. The front of the
boat lifted up gliding on the water like nothing could touch it. It was
silent. No one was speaking. I looked upon the water and it was one
of the most beautiful things I had ever seen. As the sun shown upon
the water it looked like perfectly smooth glass. I was on cloud nine,
hoping it would never end. The silence broke with a question, “Are
you guys ready to go tubing?” Ciara looked at me and asked if I was
ready. I said “yes”, out of complete and utter terror. I did exactly what
Ciara had done, with no idea what I was doing. After Ciara’s dad, Ron,
hooked up the intertube, we went to the edge of the boat. I paused, I
looked down at the water, then said a prayer asking God to not let me
drown! I got in the water and swam over to the intertube. I was scared
to death! Thoughts were racing through my head “What if the rope
breaks and we get stranded?” “What if I fall off and get run over by a
boat?” Needless to say a lot of “what-ifs” were going through my head.
I gripped those handles so hard my hands were sore the next day. Once
we started going, I thought I was going to start crying, I was so scared.
After about thirty minutes of complete fright, I looked out at God’s
beautiful creation - the trees, water, and the birds soaring above. I
closed my eyes and I felt like a bird flying high above the water. Look-

and bustle of yesteryear. It’s an interesting
site that should be shared. Even the name
is a bit precarious. Let’s start our story way
back about a hundred years or so — around
the turn of the twentieth century. This part of the world was deep into
one of the only forms of free trade that our area possessed - the log
trade to be exact. Our local boys sawed huge trees, and then carted
them to the river in preparation for the long trip down a watery trail
leading to Nashville. The Obey and Cumberland Rivers offered a
downstream highway — the necessary means of transporting hundreds
of thousands of logs that eventually became furniture and building sup-
plies for much of America. It was wood that fashioned our country.
But how does the old logging trade fit as part of the heritage
of Accordion Bluff? It’s simple, really. The logs are what gave our
fine bluff its name. When viewed from far away, Accordion Bluff’s
characteristic vertical stripes remain quite visible. Those downward
ruts in the bluff face do in fact look like the exposed lines of an accor-
dion. It looks like someone stretched that mountain apart exposing the
accordion-shaped linear lines for all to see.
But why are those long valley lines there? The logs did it. In
the early 1900’s, young America was in need of logs. Loggers would
cut, saw, and drag the logs across the valleys and ridges by the path
of least resistance, over ridge lines and mountain tops, to the pinnacle
of entry into the river, where they could easily transport their wares to
market. They would pull those trees to the top of the bluff and push
them over the edge to the river below – dragging the soil, rock, and
plant material along the way to the riverbed below – forever a visual
testimony to the logging trade of the day. Once at the river, all of those
logs could be built into a large river-worthy craft and ready for the one
hundred mile trip downstream. Quite simply, they’d drag all those logs
to the river…bind them all together … and head south with their load.
Each logger had their own “brand” for the end of the logs…much like
a rancher for his cattle. They would stamp their mark into the end of
each log to prove ownership once the craft met its destination. At its
downstream location, the owner would be paid by the board-foot for his
wares. Then he would make his way back to his home base in the Obey
River Valley.
Those old log-routes are still SO visual on that bluff. I can
almost see those logs sliding down the bluff and the people prying and
pushing logs all over that bluff’s surface. It’s beautiful, really. You just
have to see beyond what most see. You have to look with older eyes.
And there is yet another stripe across this rock face too. This
one is left-to-right — almost indiscernible in its modern-day form. It’s
hard to believe that this was once a road — a heavily-traveled highway
clinging to that tall bluff between the old city of Willow Grove and the
town of Lillydale. It too is a huge part of our bluff’s history.
So there you have it. Logs carved the up-and-down lines in

good campfire going, tell some tales and fishing stories, allow the
families and couples vacationing to socialize and enjoy the experience
of sitting by the campfire. Jeff has also been known to fire up the grill

Odum, one of the surviving CCC enrollees from Company 447, was
present at the Pickett CCC Museum during the opening sharing fond
memories of this time in his life. Mr. Odum recalled that his father
worked at General Motors/Delphi during the 1920’s and after the stock
market crash, lost his job. Not being able to find work in Dayton, Ohio,
he sent his family back to the countryside of Gainesboro, in Jackson
County, TN. With an old packed 1927 car the family traveled for two
days down Hwy. 70 which was then a bumpy dirt road. Mr. Odum
stayed with Company 447 for about three and a half years before going
over to fight for our country in Japan during World War II. Most of
the CCC workers went straight from these camps across the country to
serve in World War II. The CCC Camps prepared these young men to
get along with others of different ethic and cultural backgrounds, plus

Big South Fork Scenic Railway
Family Railroad Adventure
The Big South Fork Scenic Railway allows passengers to experience

one of the last remaining company towns, with an operational railroad
and reconstructed coal camp originally built during the early nineteen
hundreds. The Scenic Railway is located in the National Historic
District of Stearns, Kentucky, which is on the northern end of the Big
South Fork National River and Recreation Area. Your family will
enjoy the 16 mile round trip upon the 110 year old, Kentucky & Ten-
nessee Railway, known as the “Route of the Painted Rocks.” This ride
is full of spectacular vistas, lush vegetation and free flowing mountain
streams as it descends 600 feet into the river gorge. The Big South
Fork of the Cumberland River and remnants from the communities that
once lined the railway now serve as reminders of days gone by.
Regular departures, April through October, upon the K&T Special take
3 hours and include a new section of track through the mining camp
of Worley. Worley was the largest mining community along the K&T.
The train makes a stop at Blue Heron Coal Mining Camp, a National
Park Service outdoor interpretive site. Blue Heron was built by the
Stearns Coal & Lumber Company in 1937 and operated until 1962.
The coal camp contains “ghost structures” and each structure has visual
and oral history exhibits. Visitors to Blue Heron can walk into the face
of the mine as well as cross over the river on the tipple bridge. The
Railway offers additional experiences by taking a Cab Ride, Caboose
Rental, a Rivers & Rails Package, and a new Saturday Pass for those
folks that would like more time to hike and explore Blue Heron.
Your ticket aboard the K&T Special also includes admission to the
McCreary County Museum. The Museum is located in the Historic
District and is within walking distance of the Depot. The Museum fo-
cuses on early pioneer life through the boom times of the Stearns Coal
& Lumber Company. You should allow 1½ to 2 hours to spend touring
the Museum as well as shopping in one of the many unique craft and
gift shops in downtown Stearns. The railway has live bluegrass music
in the depot half an hour before each train departs.
In November, take a trip on the new “Run to the Gorge.” Enjoy riding
in heated cars into the Gorge of the Big South Fork National River and
Recreation Area. The November excursion will allow passengers to
experience our beautiful area without the foliage. You’ll be amazed
by the difference. Round trips are 1 ½ hours in length and depart rain
or shine. The ticket also includes admission to the McCreary County
Museum.
The Big South Fork Scenic Railway has special event trains like the
Haunted Hollow Express in October and the Santa Express Train in
December. Many new exciting activities are planned for 2011, so be
sure to visit our website for more details.
The BSFSR excursion cars range from enclosed to open air and pas-
sengers are seated first come, first serve. Passengers should dress
accordingly for the weather. The Railway operates rain or shine and
all trains depart on Eastern Time. For more information or reserva-
tions on Big South Fork Scenic Railway, go to www.bsfsry.com or call

an icon of the Old West – the wild mustangs. In recent years, the www.CedarCreekCattleCompany.com
wild mustang population has become way too large for the land area www.NewBeginningsYouthRanch.com
available for them to roam. The Bureau of Land Management has www.EastForkStables.com
been working to adopt to loving homes a percentage of the mustangs
and burros from these over populated regions. The trouble is that most
people either aren’t prepared for the challenge of taming or containing
these marvelous creatures that are accustomed to roaming wild and
doing as they please. So, they are looking at new ways to find them
forever homes rather than having to send them off to slaughter. A
few programs are now in place to help provide training to the recently
captured animals prior to placing them up for adoption. The program at
New Beginnings is just one example.
New Beginnings Youth Ranch offers opportunities for interested youth

to participate in a 12 week horsemanship program – caring, feeding,
cleaning, and grooming their yearling mustang. They work with the
horses and enjoy a variety of activities during the course of the training.
The Day Program requires a commitment of one hour per day, two
days per week for 12 weeks. It allows the youth to build confidence,
conquer fears, work through anxiety, accept responsibility and develop
relationships. To paraphrase Mike - the horses have the innate ability
to mirror the attitudes and emotions of the youth, yet do not possess the
abilities to manipulate or lie. Each horse has a unique personality all
its own. They are honest, sensitive, and steadfast in their interactions
with those around them. The sessions provide the opportunity for the
youth to learn a lot about life and how to better handle situations in
their lives. Some of the teens have led troubled lives, others volunteer
out of a love of horses with a desire to help these majestic creatures find
homes. They too learn much about life and themselves, building new
confidence and bolstering their self esteem.
At the end of the 12 week program, a Youth and Yearling Mustang

Challenge is held at East Fork Stables to showcase the efforts of the
young people and their charges. October 9th, 2010 was one such event.
In this case, the mustangs had only been at the ranch for 70 days – only
10 weeks. Mike Branch of Flying B Horsemanship was on hand to
host the event. The youth and the horses were all prepared – groomed
and ready to show how far they have come. Not all of the youth that
began the program came for the day, but as Mr. Mike pointed out – they
are all winners that took part in the challenge. They undertook a task
that few people ever attempt – handling a wild mustang. Some of the
youth were going to be able to keep their horses; others were offering
their horses for adoption/auction later that day. The arena at East Fork

thrifty qualities of previous generations of quilters that rarely had the

Most of the quilt squares that are put on barns range in size from 2’ x 2’
to 8’ x 8’ wooden squares. Each square’s pattern is chosen by the proud
property owner. By displaying favorite patterns on barns, businesses

The Upper Cumberland Quilt Festival, held annually in Algood, TN,

showcases many patterns, fabric, notions and supplies, plus many of the

designed with an attention to detail that seems to speak to the heart of
all visitors.
The winery, which can be viewed from the tasting room on the main
level, is housed in the lower level of the building and features a large
tank room for fermenting the wines. Twenty stainless steel tanks of
various sizes and an assortment of oak barrels are currently in use. This
is where the winemaker, Dominic Burke, utilizes his skills to ferment
wines specifically for DelMonaco Winery & Vineyards. Dominic,
a native of South Africa, has produced award winning wines in New
Zealand, France, Austria, Australia and South Africa and now in Ten-
nessee. The bottling, bonding and storage rooms complete the 9000 sq.

of the building.
The main entrance to the building opens to the Gift Shop and Tasting
Room. Here guests can enjoy FREE tastings of the award-winning
wines produced on the property, and purchase unique gifts chosen es-
pecially for the wine lover. FREE facility and vineyard tours are also
available. After purchasing wine, guests can enjoy it in any of the Bella
Rooms or on the back patio overlooking the scenic vineyards.
The Bella Rooms were designed to host an array of special events. The
3500 sq. ft. Bella seats up to 300 people and features a custom designed
vineyard motif floor, marble columns, expansive palladium windows,
an elegant dual staircase surrounding the stage, and three large glass
doors that open out for viewing the vineyards. The Bella is compli-
mented by a ten foot wide interior balcony and a 12 foot wide exterior
balcony. A special room, comfortably accommodating, is available for
a bride and her entourage or a guest speaker. Access to the caterer’s
kitchen completes the Bella.
Three other meeting rooms on the second level are also part of the
Bella Rooms, and provide users with an atmosphere of tranquility and
relaxation. The McNellis Room accommodates up to 80 people com-
fortably. The Johnson Room seats 50 and is complimented by a But-
ler’s Pantry. The Jackson Room seats up to 25. Each room has its own
uniqueness from views of the vineyards to balcony access.
Folks can also take walking tours of the manicured vineyards.
Currently, four varieties of grapes are planted. Each has their own
unique flavor, aroma, and planting pattern. Within the walking
tour, you can stop on the bridge between the two vineyards; relax at
the picnic table or in the swing underneath the huge oak tree while
