whose trust is the Lord.”
Jeremiah 17:7

Reflections on Apple Lake at Half Mile Farm!
After a lot of rain, the water lilies find themselves below the surface.
Dry Falls located a few miles from Highlands is easily viewed from an accessible landing or seen up close by hiking a 1/4 mile trail.
Dry Falls is located in the Nantahala National Forest.
With unseasonal 80 degree temps at home in February, Ella Mae is having fun on an “airplane” that was her dads when he was her age.
The rhododendrons, abundant in western Carolina, seem to be anticipating Spring!

Such pretty pictures. We have waterfalls in our district too, but none near a highway!
Thank you, it is a pretty area!
Glorious photos Pam! I hope you’re enjoying a Happy Anniversary getaway. ♥
Thank you Mary!
Great photos of your trip. Ella Mae looks like she’s grown inches – must be all the rain! 😉
She is going to be tall unlike her PJ,?
Gorgeous pictures Pam. Loving those 80 degree temps you have. Happy anniversity to you and Butch❤️
Thank you Alice! We came home today to lots of rain!
Thanks to having friends in Highlands, it is a favorite stop when we drive to Maine.
It is an area we have enjoyed for many years!
Beautiful photos! We are just down the mountain from Highlands. It is amazing how just a short drive up there in the summer lowers the temperature by 20 degrees. We’ve enjoyed seeing many weddings at the Presbterian and Episcopal churches where the groom and groomsmen are kitted out in their kilts!
Roxanne, it is such a pretty area! How fun to see grooms and groomsmen dressed in kilts!
My husband and I lived in Franklin, ND for many years. We enjoyed visits to Highlands.
We enjoy that area, Carol!
Looks like a great anniversary trip.❤️
Really enjoyable, Bonnie,
We love Highlands, but I’m always telling my husband to drive slower because the road is sooo twisty that I get car sick.
Pam, I understand car sickness. It never used to bother me until the last couple of years!
Beautiful photos, Pam. And, it looks as though you enjoyed a lovely trip. As I am Presbyterian, the lovely church touches my heart, as well as the gorgeous photos of the falls. But, precious Ella Mae wins the award. She is certainly growing!
Wishing you and yours a wonderful day !
Thank you dearest Sandra,
It looks like you had a wonderful Anniversary getaway Pam, and Ella Mae on the grass is such a gorgeous photo! Happy Sunday~
