Potpourri

 

Grandfather Mountain Highland Games, 2022 


Black Mountain loves its library and librarians!


Linville Gorge



Holman Apartments, Black Mountain 1930s (no longer here)




This building has 2 apartments, 1 bedroom each. Near Lake Tomahawk.



I still miss the old gazebo at Lake Tomahawk, waiting for a new one.

      Thank you Eileen. I did enjoy framing the lake and mountains from the gazebo.

    ...the Holman Apartments certainly is a loss.

      Second try to reply: I don't know how it met its demise.

      I just wander through town and see some interesting things. Some aren't so interesting, actually.

    It's nice to wander around the town with you since I will never visit it on my own! I travel the world via bloggers!

    That last one is so peaceful. I hope your new gazebo is built soon.

    The gorge is impressive.
