Hodge Podge day

 

Thanks to Facebook!

I love the dancing figure hanging from the back balconies of the Black Mountain Center for the Arts. However, she is hanging by the neck...which gives a rather negative connotation to "what you'll end up with if you're an artist!"

There are days like that!

Hwy 221 North in front of the John English Farm in North Cove, North Carolina. near Linville Caverns, 1930 and 2022. I've travelled that road many times on day trips to Linville Falls. From Black Mountain we go east on I-40 to Old Fort, then on US 70 to Marion, and turn north on 221 where it intersects.

Huge photo of a NY Delli in our recently opened Zelle's Delli in Swannanoa. It's food may be made mostly in-house, but we found it about a 3 star outfit...though lots of people showed up in lines after we'd received our order shortly after they opened. My Rueben was just ok, friend's pastrami had the same result, as well as friend's roast beef. 

Two views of the dam at Lake Tomahawk from the car this week. I was too tired from exercise to walk down there to get more photos. Looks like they should be planting something in the dirt next.

Today's quote:

This is a time of transformation, and transformation comes not out of scarcity but out of the context of possibility, responsibility, and sufficiency.
