Mountain time again



Well, it has been a wonderful autumn. A week ago we spent one week in Tennessee and North Caolina, and the colors were spectacular. We got to visit with Tom's brother and his family, and spent two nights in an authentic log cabin (see http://www.boydmountain.com/) and then spent several days with good friends outside of Asheville.



The image you see here is the view from their deck and family room windows (and the driveway, kitchen, and the dining room, too), of the house we stayed in near Asheville. This view changes every five minutes, and deer wander across the meadow. It was so lovely. This faces west, so the sun goes down behind the mountains. It was also a dairy farm at one time, and the barn buildings are nearby and the fields are still planted in hay. The haying had just finished when we arrived.

Our host is a wonderful cook, and lives by the recipes of Paula Deen. She is also a crazy wonderful friend, and we had so much fun. Isn't this to die for?
