Ur, operator of aa art gallery,
recalled the tremendous crowds
of IMS and aaid: "Our problem
thii year la going to be how to
accommodate the tourists. "
After the new ski run at
Blowing Rock got going good,
10 motels and two restaurants
opened up last winter to serve
the visitors.
U the Shulls Mill section,
the flamboyant Bobbins family,
promoters of The Blowing
Rack ami Tweetale, are build
ing a luxury type year-around
resort. It will Include a foil
courae and a ski run far mem
ber* anly, aa well as hones,
swimming and other equip
ment, and will be known aa Ar
rowhead Lodge, a dub-type op
eration.
We have visited maybe 40
counties so far in 1963, and not
a one of them exceeded Wata
uga in prosperity, independ
ence, buoyance and confidence.
Obviously, what this state
needs is more depressed coun
ties like Watauga.
