Blue Ridge Mountains

5/24/2018

Some places you visit in life never seem to leave you. For me it was the Blue Ridge and Smokey Mountains of North Carolina. I first went there as a young child. It was then part of my heart and soul stayed in the area. Recently, I was able to go back. It had been over thirty years since I laid eyes on the beauty of this area. I tried to hide, from my husband, the tears that welled up in my eyes as our drive lead us into the mountains.
We are back home in Texas now, but I have made a promise to myself not to stay away that long again.

Some people are beach or lake people. I have always been a river and mountain person. Wherever the place is that speaks to your soul, go there often!

"May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, and leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds."
