Black Mountain early spring views

 


The first Forsythia that I've been able to capture!

Next to a parking lot on Sutton St., just downhill from the Center for the Arts.


A bit of man-made sculpture in the catch basin which is home to lots of cattails and other swampy organic vegetation in spring through fall. This is located behind Thai Basil and next to the Clay Studio.


A popular yarn shop moved last year to be next to Tyson's Furniture.


The signature shop at the junction which forms downtown Black Mountain, Town Hardware. It's more for tourists than the fixer-upper person in a family, but they've always got what I need for my home.


Today's quote:

The simplest questions are the most profound. Where were you born? Where is your home? Where are you going? What are you doing? Think about these once in a while and watch your answers change. -Richard Bach, writer (b. 23 Jun 1936)

  1. Hello,
    Love the spring blooms. The past two years have been bad for the small businesses, it is great to see some doing well.
    Take care, enjoy your day and have a happy new week!

    1. Hi Eileen...thanks for your comment. Yes, I have one friend who recently opened a small business...I'm proud of her, getting in on a wave which we all hope will mean more tourist business here.

  2. I haven't seen any Forsythia here just yet. I am ready for everything to bloom!

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.
