Cards and soaps etc

Mountain Spirit shop was closed the morning I was looking for a birthday card...which I searched through another 4 shops before finding the one I wanted.  When they are open, I know it is a lovely store to shop in!

For a peak at another NC town nearby, go to my other blog here, to see my visit to Marshall, NC.

Quote for the day:

The world is holy. We are holy. All life is holy. Daily prayers are delivered on the lips of breaking waves, the whisperings of grasses, the shimmering of leaves.
Terry Tempest Williams, from Talking to God: Portrait of a World at Prayer (anthology)

Dark City Deli and Pub

A great restaurant with outdoor seating...this must be popular this spring when the weather blesses us with warmth.





Quote for the day:
Make your meditation a continuous state of mind. A great worship is going on all the time, so nothing should be neglected or excluded from your constant meditative awareness.  Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
