I just remembered the name of the place we ate at in Blowing Rock- Crippin's. So I do a google and find the owners retired and have closed it... They moved to FL.

Of course from what I have learned around here is folks from up north, OH, NY, etc go to FL, think it is too hot and end up moving to TN. They are called "half-backs". They move halfway back to where they came from.
