I feel like Western NC is an extension of my home. Having been in and around the NE Georgia mountains my whole life, it is only natural for this mountain-loving girl to have explored beyond my own mountains into those of NC. I have traveled the Blue Ridge Parkway numerous times. Gone to the Craftsman’s … Continue reading Western NC

The Last Week
You know that even though I haven’t been posting, I have still been writing. After all, this blog is an e-journal of sorts. My diary, so others will know they are not alone in their feelings. This is what I have written in the last week of Mom’s life. It’s long. If you just want … Continue reading The Last Week
Dear Kansas City
