Black Mountain

The greening of the mountains from Tanbark Ridge overlook, elevation 3175 feet, Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina. The road seen in upper left is the parkway as it continues northeast. Can you see the little houses, including my favorite, the red roofed one?

When you first arrive

The first decision in Black Mountain is at this intersection...and you probably want to turn right to the Visitor's Center, one block down State Street. (to be featured tomorrow)

May 29 at 11:25 am, the intersection of State St and Montreat Rd has no traffic...so I took a picture!  State St. is also US 70, and Montreat is US 9.  You're looking at the fire station, and the steeple belongs to the First Baptists up the block behind them.

One minute later...
And one week later...

    It only took a minute for traffic to arrive in your photo!

    Such a beautiful and serene area to live.
    I love going to N.C. over the Smoky Mountains, and into Cherokee.

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
