Wonderland

A wonderland of beauty, really, all ours... Just remarkable...

Nature is throwing a visual party. The autumn leaves are like confetti... Life is a celebration of passionate colors...

Pigeon River

We shared lunch along side the Pigeon River and Cold Mountain...

Autumn Air

"A few days ago I walked along the edge of the lake and was treated to the crunch and rustle of leaves with each step I made. The acoustics of this season are different and all sounds, no matter how hushed, are as crisp as autumn air."
~ Eric Sloane

In between visiting company and hectic schedules, we managed a wonderful picnic and ride up NC 215 to the Parkway. The sky was blue blue and the fall colors were spectacular!

Sun Rays & Autumn

Autumn Colors and the Sun Rays

In the midst of trying to clean the house for my company, I am loving the Fall colors.The reds, oranges, and yellows are even more vibrant against the clear blue sky.

I catch my breath around every turn. And I utter lots of "oohs" and "ahhhs."

Here, at the French Broad River near Bent Creek. Look at how fluorescent the yellows are. The treat of the mighty French Broad. And I love that curved dark bark of the tree.

Do you ever get immune to this beauty?
