What in the world?….

I haven’t ventured out lately to look at strange items, but I’ve found a couple close to home. If anyone out there in bloggy land knows what either one of these two pictures are of….I’d love you even more!
First off, this picture was taken in Cataloochee. You can find my picture of it [...]

Memorial Weekend 2009

Here’s how my saturday went…. (sorry no pictures)
We started out by heading to eat at our local Burger King. Yummy and not too busy today!
Then, we ventured back down past our house to a furniture sale that I spotted the night before. They were sold out of the mattress set that we had [...]

Foothills Parkway 5-23-09

This is a scenic parkway near our town.  We never had ventured up it before, so while we were killing time it seemed the perfect opportunity!
The sign said it was 11 miles to Look Out Rock.  So, we made that our goal.
Here are some pics of the drive up to the parking lot for Look [...]

Way Over Yonder on the Cataloochee…. INTRO

—————Since I have so many pictures that I want to post, I’m going to do this in a series of posts.————-

This past Mother’s Day, I got to choose where I wanted to go. Imagine that!  Well, I’ve been wanting to wonder over to North Carolina for a couple of years now..just to visit Cataloochee.  I [...]

Cataloochee – POST 6

Here in lies my disappointment!  Below is a picture of the tour.  There are houses on here that I didn’t get to see…since you have to hike about 4 miles!  I didn’t do my research very well!  This was part of that information tour inside the Palmer House (post 3).

Here is the elk that we [...]

Cataloochee – POST 5

After the school, we come upon a bridge that seems to go to nowhere.  The rest of the family ventured across…not me!  I’m not a lover of bridges!!!  I did go to the middle to take a picture…

After stopping at the bridge, we head on over to the Caldwell place.  This house is painted so [...]

Cataloochee…. POST 2

We stopped a short ways into the park at a pullover to eat our lunch.  Well, we were excited, but we hadn’t eaten all day.  This was the coolest pullover EVER!  You could walk up a little path and get a great view!  Plus, well…I’ll show you the pics and tell about them.  You can [...]

Cataloochee… POST 4

Driving on down the road, we see the ranger station.  It has a barn next to it that is on the stop and view list, but we didn’t stop. It was just a barn!

Next stop, the Palmer Chapel.  This is a quaint little church nestled back in the trees next to a creek.  So beautiful!  [...]
