So I’m back in the swing of things, sharing all the good things about the mountains of Western North Carolina and the surrounding Georgia, South Carolina, and Eastern Tennessee towns. The beautiful communities where the fog lifts to reveal long range views, locally owned boutiques and restaurants, artists, entrepreneurs, and the most incredible mix of some of the best people you could ever hope to meet. We make time for hikes, lake days, festivals, golfing, and always take in the sunset views with good company.
