Autumn In the Mountains Car Show
This past weekend was our annual car show for the British Car Club. The day began foggy and cool, and cars were arriving early.

Springtime Apple Blossom Drive and Garden
Spring seems to be here at last for good. This week the azaleas have burst into bloom along the driveway circle, with the larger white one and the light pink both fully opened up now.
