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?

Where does this water go next?

Water seeks the lowest level available...always flowing when it can.

Flat Creek tumbles around bends and over stones...going to the Swannanoa River first...and eventually to the Gulf of Mexico.

Last week this log caught water and hung onto in the form of ice.

  1. Peace in your heart is so great. I like to figure out where small streams end up in our area. Our water goes from creeks to minor rivers then ends up in two other larger rivers. Heading south the water ends up in the Mississippi. Thanks for making me think about it.

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.
