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?

Garden: Poppies

y neighbor's yard, which has been tended somewhat, but she's moved and left all this beauty behind.

What grand flowers, I've never seen them so big!

  1. Those poppies are so pretty - and I really agree with that quote. All we have to do is look around: and it is truly glorious that there's anything here at all.
