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?

Someone lived there


By the size of the parking lot, perhaps this was a business at one time.  But the roped off area says "private property, no turn around." And that's what I was actually doing there.  But I had to capture this poor building, which has certainly seen better days.  I am intrigued how buildings are left to the elements, and what parts of architecture stand up longest.

This wasn't in Black Mountain, but on the road down from Etowah to DuPont State Forest.

    I, too, am intrigued by abandoned buildings. I always wonder what stories they have to tell. Sometimes I make up a story to fit.

    You wonder how long it can stand.
