Autumn In The Mountains Car Show
Yesterday was our big event for the British Car Club, our annual Autumn In The Mountains car show. It is the last big event for me for a busy September. I am president of this club, so the workload for me was increased this year. Our car is the one on the right, a TVR. …
Fun at the NC Mountain State Fair 2015
The Mountain Regional State Fair is in its last weekend, and it was a blast to both enter competitions and attend the fair. This year I went twice, and yes I had to get a corn dog both times. I enjoy so much about this annual event, the heritage crafts, the fun food (no I …
Apple Festival 2015
This weekend is the Apple Festival in my small town of Hendersonville, North Carolina.

Blue Ridge Parkway Progressive Drive
Saturday, the British Car Club got together for a fun drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway. We call it a Progressive Drive, and it is an idea I came up with a few years ago to mix up participants during a drive. When everyone is in two-seater cars, it is hard to get a lot …
Visitors to the Garden
Look who paid us a visit over the weekend! This guy thought he might try to get into the bird feeder, but he wasn't successful. DH and I were on the inside of the sliding glass door, and we banged on the glass every time he looked at the top. The turkeys have returned, and …

Taking a break from everything is easy here, with the Blue Ridge Parkway just minutes away. It took about 45 minutes to drive up to Graveyard Fields yesterday for a mind-clearing hike. We are so lucky to live where a vacation set of mind is literally a short drive away. We have wanted to hike …
