Black Mountain

Lake Tomahawk July 24, 2024

It's early for high summer

 




But even on cloudy days, it just feels so muggy out. Here over the lake you can see clearly the YMCA Blueridge Assembly building with it's red roof. That was the first home of Black Mountain College, for which this area has a bit of notoriety in art and educational circles.

I walk quickly into air conditioning at the Lakeview Center for Active aging, for lunch anyway.

Today's quote:

We cannot forget that our real power is not necessarily to change the world, but to make a world of change to the people we encounter every day.

  2. At present, our days are reaching 80 or slightly above, and the nights are getting down to 60ish or even lower.

    1. At least we've started having thunderstorms in the afternoons. But with high humidity, things just stay wet. I don't need to look at my porch pplants at least!

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.
