( do I hear sighs of relief out there? :) )

OK- We had enjoyed our little taste of wintery weather in the High Country! YES! Really - even the Wheel- Deal!
It was a beautiful drive from Banner Elk-Spruce Pine area back to Hendersonville where we stayed for the night!
Some pics of that drive:
And here we are the next morning at the motel, before leaving for Franklin and then on to Silva!
The road we traveled between Hendersonville and Franklin was probably the prettiest we had seen...a very winding, mountain road; still in peak color!
SILVA is a pretty little town we had visited a few times before! We like to see that court house high on the hill! ;) We didn't walk up those steps this time , though! With the way my luck was going I just might have taken a tumble down that hill-right into the road! Indeed, the road runs just at the base of that hill!
Some Pics of Silva:
North Carolina! What a beautiful state!

Imagine my surprise when I heard the name Franklin ( North Carolina I take it) My first husbands family is from there and when he was alive I took many a trip down to visit. Most Of his family is gone now except for a few grandkids and a sister in Forest City. It has been years since I visited down there but I must agree it is a pretty state.
ReplyDeleteTo Momma,
ReplyDeleteFranklin is a very pretty place...and my sister lives in Forest City. They recently moved from Tryan!
I didn't see ANY part of the state that wasn't beautiful!

ReplyDeleteThanks, Joy!
ReplyDeleteI think NC is the prettiest state I've seen - at least it is in the fall!
