you are in NC I beieve.. I lived in NC for 15 years & the fall was always “later” but so sweet to ride through the Blue Ridge and the Smokies to see the wonderful color. I miss it so much

Ours is almost at peak - each day a little richer in the shades of fall

I miss my grandpa so much. :( He was Welsh and Cherokee—not a large man, but stronger than you’d ever believe looking at him. Coalminer and farmer—I can see him walking around with his hands in his pockets, whistling. He had a way with horses and mules that was jsut beautiful to watch. Daddy always says he loves tracors the way grandpa loved mules.

**you are in NC I believe**

Yep, right on the coast, so we don’t get a whole lot of color. Love the mountains. Daddy’s people are fom there, so it always feels like home. The Blue Ridge Parkway is beautiful at any time! Sorry you had to move! NC is a great state, and you won’t find any finer people anywhere on the planet.
