I love it, too. I guess I'm just a sucker for fall foliage. We go to the Smokey Mountains every fall, always beautiful.

We took this photo there last week.

Karen, Lucky you getting to visit the Smokies every year! I fell in love with the Smokies on my first visit back in the mid 70's. We used to go once a year but haven't been in four years now and I don't know when I will ever get a chance to visit the mountains again. I love the Blue Ridge Mountains too. This is a shot taken in fall of 2005 from the Hendersonville N.C. area:

Wow, that's gorgeous.

Our anniversary is in Oct, and the trip is now our gift to one another. Usually just a 4 day weekend.

A long weekend in the mountains ... what a wonderful Anniversary gift to each other! Here's another photo I took in N.C. in 2005. I can't remember the city but we were heading to Brevard N.C. from Hendersonville. This was such a serene and picturesque setting and I just had to take a couple of pictures.

Bearwallow Baptist Church ... (don't you just love that name!)

Lin, that is the whole area where our nieces & their families live. Rutherford county, Ashville, Hendersonville, Lake Lure. Some really cool names there like Bearwallow. How about Bat Cave?

Very pretty up there. Lots of rushing creeks, streams.

Yours truly eons ago up there visiting DH's grandparents. Excuse the poor quality. Old photo -- scanned -- then uploaded to the computer.

LOL ... that photo could be me! I looked a lot like that in back in the late 60's, early 70's. Big Grin

Didn't we all? Whistling




Oh yes, bell bottoms & also hip huggers. Everything old is new again.

Wow, that could be me too! Same long straight hair parted down the middle, bell bottoms, early- mid's 70's for me! I really should fire my old scanner up and get some of those old photos copied!
