Mother Nature sitting by my side

When I settled in the mountains in May, 2010 I
went into the woods and touched the works of
Mother Nature. 

After awhile I sat
on a big rock and
listened. Not a
sound other than
the flowing
movement
of leaves in
concert with a
gentle mountain
breeze.

Total quiet. Stillness. Peace. Tranquility.

I thought about all the victories and defeats of my business life and the love and heartache I had experienced in my personal life.

As I sat on that rock that day I thought it was all worth it to get to where I was at that moment ... sitting on a rock in the woods with Mother Nature at my side.

March, 2012 - At age 68 back into publishing and I love it because I've had a love affair with Banner Elk since the early 70's. Now I am finally here to stay and look forward to building a internet magazine that will present Banner Elk as one of the most desired places in America to BE.
