Yesterday on the Blue Ridge

 
Look up, there are just a few leaves already turning colors.

Look out and down, there's mainly green to be seen, and some clouds blowing in from the southeast
Look across, and you can see the cut of the Parkway in the horizontal band that ends at the right of the photo...
Look who brought his camera, who had never been to Mt. Mitchell!

Tomorrow, more of the trip to Mt. Mitchell.

Quote for today:



Gratitude can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. It makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.  Melody Beattie

    1. OOps, that's a friend from church, Shelly Frome, who said he'd like to go see Mt. Mitchell, and he did! You'll see some more of him later. Sorry I didn't introduce him.

  5. I love Mt. Mitchell. The drive, the view, the flora, the animals. How great to be so near a place whose record high temperature was only 81.

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.
