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?

Tennis anyone?

A tennis lesson in progress at the courts at Lake Tomahawk.

The fences have wind/sun protection, as well as a request for tobacco free parks.  It isn't followed too well a lot of the time, however.

Quote for today:


Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

    I'm amazed at the number of tennis players in this chilly weather. Around here Pickleball has really taken off and they play in the cold as well.

      Exactly...a quote is worth a lot when you don't play tennis!
