Best Photo Ever Taken

Steven says this is the best photo ever taken. He likes his smile, his posture of confidence, his bald head mirrored by the bald rocks behind him. He likes the size and power of the Harley that he controls and he likes his “beautiful wife” behind him.

Sylva, NC

Mill & Main Restaurant, Sylva, NC

A full day on the Harley. Steven and I went on a magnificent ride with Cathy and Dana through Brevard, up 215 to NC-1756 past a dried out Balsam Lake near the Tuskegee River. The weather was warm and I know spring is right around the corner. We stopped at Mill & Main Restaurant in downtown Sylva and I felt great stretching out in the sun.

Hwy 215, North Carolina

Great day of riding back through country road treasures of Dupont Forest to Caesars Head back via Rosman, and up HWY 215. Of course, The Parkway is closed for winter, but that means the highway was almost empty, so the ride was spectacular.

On the other side, going North on 215 (Lake Logan Road) to Canton, we were shaded and there was ice on the road. Not my favorite. But the recent rain made the Pigeon River swell and the waterfalls along the side of the road were magnificent. There is so much comfort in the feel of the rocking Harley, the clean air, speed, passing scenery, music in my ears, and Steven pressed against my chest.
