Scenic Sunday

Welcome to our home in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains!






For the beauty of the earth
For the beauty of the skies
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies
Over and around us lies

Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our joyful hymn of praise

For the beauty of the hour
Of the day and of the night
Hill and vale and tree and flower
Sun and moon and stars of light
Sun and moon and stars of light
Folliot Pierpoint

Just returned from camping in the Smoky Mountains. we love going on the Blue Ridge parkway. Closest we got this trip was the newly opened final segment of the Foothills parkway.

It was a perfect drive to appreciate the beauty of God's creation. Have a great week!

Beautiful pictures and post. I've had a number of medical issues and I've got what may be a new one or a recurrence of past one. I had a spinal cord tumor removed in 2012 and similar pain again. Fortunately I was able to see my neurosurgeon last week and I have an MRI tomorrow. He's a champ and value his calm and no-nonsense manner. Appreciate your prayers. Thanks!

Wow! (That's all I was going to say, then I thought maybe that wouldn't be nice, so here I am to say it again, WOW!)
