Countryside in Ashe County (near Scottville) this week. A old barn with a rusty metal roof with snowfall on the ground.

Pretty country!

Wintery, snowy mountain scene with old barns and brick silos.

This shot was taken on highway 221 near Scottville in North Carolina. The day was very windy with snow flurries. (Taken 2/25/10)

Here’s the same shot as yesterday but this one is in a soft sepia tone. Which one do you like the best??

Snow and ice scene on Howard’s Knob in Boone.

Pretty winter snow in the mountains. This is Howard’s Knob in Boone.

Heading out to the Boone area for a few days. Expecting several inches of snow. I hope to get some very pretty, wintery snow scenes!

Craggy Gardens on the Parkway – In the fall, the Craggies turn red with a wonderful show of mountain ash berries that can cast redish tones over the entire area.

Parkway articles, stories and photos.

Here’s a great magazine that will be covering the parkway all year long.

They’ll be sharing stories and photos throughout the year so be sure to bookmark them and visit often.

Celebrating 75 Years! This year, the Blue Ridge Parkway is celebrating it’s 75th birthday. I’ll be posting lots of parkway photos over the next several weeks.

Enjoy!

What a beautiful bird!

Here’s a new video of Oliver. He’s saying “Little birdies don’t have any food. See the snow outside little buddy. Turn around, don’t poop in your water. Mama gonna make you some supper. Yum. Yum”
