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?

Hanging around the club house





Hanging at the place where several rocking chairs welcome residents to take a moment to relax, geraniums, petunias and phlox are well tended. The club house is the rennovated original home on the property, a two story building which houses the office, and 2 two-bedroom apartments above (the only ones in the complex.)  There's also a couple of group rooms inside, which aren't available for parties like many club-houses at apartments. Oh well.

We gather once a week either on the porch or inside to distribute the produce provided for elders from the local food bank.

    I always use Geraniums for my own hanging baskets - they are so forgiving if you have to be away for any length of time and cannot water them. A great little flower to have in the garden.
    It is a terrible reflection on society today that food banks are needed to sustain so many people. We have them here too.
