Piney River
Nelson County, VA
Ok, we’ve sent Marcie Gates out on some pretty tough assignments before, but this past Saturday’s may have been the toughest! Marcie covered the 55th Annual Piney River Fire Department Chitterling Dinner for us. And, apparently she felt obliged to sample the delicacy while she was there. Here’s a few lines from her upcoming story:
“It was only after a little gabbing around the water coolers that Ronnie Wood and a Mr. A.D. Massie convinced me to try my first bites of this swanky dish. I eventually, but reluctantly, handed over my camera, knowing the potential for capturing a priceless facial expression outweighed my fear of actually eating a couple bites of fried pig intestines. When in Piney River, right?”
Right Marcie! After all it’s part of the job!
So just how did Marcie fair after this assignment? Find out in our upcoming March 2013 printed issue of Blue Ridge Life Magazine!
