My son and his girlfriend drove over to Roan Mountain Sunday to enjoy the turning of the leaves. It is about an hour's drive from here and it is a beautiful place to drive this time of year. He promises me he will try to get some of his new house in the woods before all the leaves fall but I will keep my fingers crossed as he has to go back to Louisiana again next week. I love the moon picture.

I meant to send you all a link to Roan Mountain. They have lots of festivals there yearly and one of the best is the Rhododendrun Festival. Also a State Park and many things to do the year around. I hardly go over there anymore though. Just one of those things.

oh Jaycee. lovely pix..

Roan Mtn was one of the three locales I stayed at when I came into Johnson City for my 2 days each week of grad school from where I lived in Winston Salem

. A friend & her hubby were rural physicians & had a place abutting the park.. they had acreage but with the park.. well had a wilderness at their disposal for hiking etc. They basically hand did the work in the house, which was amazing. decks, built in bookcases, terraced gardening, gormet kitchen, slate walkways all over the property, They sadly divorced & she married a man who was into horses as she was. When I was doing the grad school trips she was divorced but had not linked up with the horse friend. He was a butcher with 7th grade education. They were VERY happy. She said he was more educated in “life” & more considerate than her MD husband !
