The weather, music, food, and new friends we made all came together for one of those memorable events that, as we say in the South (the South of the United States, that is), \u201cdoesn\u2019t get much better than that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was the weekend of the 21st Annual Dillard Bluegrass and Barbeque Festival, held in the beautiful mountains of North Georgia, and like hundreds of visitors from the Southeast (and South Korea) who enjoyed America\u2019s quintessential \u201cmountain music,&#8221; we tapped our feet, slapped our knees, clapped our hands, and sang along with the feel-good, Appalachia-inspired tunes. People from every walk of life and age group &#8211; young, old, hippies, church-goers, yuppies, cowboys, and a myriad of combinations of the above &#8211; kicked up their heels and had a good ole&#8217; fashioned time. When they weren\u2019t singing, they were eating: barbeque. Award-winning, cooked-all-day <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/nedforney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Dillard-About-100-feet-from-the-Bluegrass-stage-300x213.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"213\" \/>barbeque.<\/p>\n<p>At some point during the festival I met Marvin and Norita Smith.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Smith, wearing his Korean Veterans cap, immediately caught my attention. After introducing myself and telling him how much I enjoy living in Korea, he told me he\u2019d served in the US Army and was sent to Korea in 1953. He spent most of his time in Busan &#8211; or \u201cPusan&#8221; as he called it &#8211; and was shocked when I described the port city as modern, high-tech, and beautiful. That\u2019s not the way he remembered it.<\/p>\n<p>He said one of the happiest days of his life was when he was told the armistice had been signed. For him it meant one thing: he could go back home &#8211; to America. Mr. Smith and his wife now live in Florida, and like me, they love Bluegrass and barbeque. I thanked Marvin for doing his part to help South Korea defeat communism and assured him that the citizens of the Republic of Korea are grateful for what he did for them. The expression on his face and the twinkling in his eyes when I told him all this was the best part of the day.<\/p>\n<p>The next morning, we had what\u2019s known in these parts as a \u201ccountry breakfast\u201d (we\u2019d spent the night at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dillardhouse.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Dillard House<\/strong><\/a>, an inn founded in 1917 which is now a hotel complex with 92 guest rooms and suites and over 28 cottages).
