I see we share the same taste in music. I hadn't heard of the book about the Carter family. I'm planning a day trip soon to the are where they lived, since I recently moved to the area. I'm currently reading "Still Woman Enough" by Loretta Lynn.
I'd like to make that trip, myself, down to Maces Springs to the family gravesite up at the church, to pay my respects. But that will be an entire "bluegrass vacation" that's still another year away yet, at least.
I think "The Carter Fold" is there, too - they have music periodically.
Probably worth reading the book before you go, to get a better perspective on what actually happened with the Carters - a very interesting story.
