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?

More vintage photos of Ashevile

Since I posted the first batch, I have lost the link to where I got these photos on line originally, so I don't have details about them. But if you can be patient, then just enjoy them as being early Asheville photos.

 The French Broad River crossing following the Civil War, when bridges had been burned...

The Fire Department in Asheville.

 Looking toward Vance Memorial obelisk and Court House.

I think this is the Baptist Church.

Victory parade at end of WW I. 1919

    It's the pull lines of the ferry that particularly draw my eye. I wonder what the horses would have thought doing such a crossing.
