Looking at Mount Mitchell, the highest point on the East coast. Trees are slowly getting some green on them, at lower elevation already fully green, yet here most ridges are see through.

Driving blueridgeparkway in the fog is cool experience. Sometimes it get so thick, can’t see 20-30 feet out. Good thing there are very few cars on this road during this type of weather. Took this on my way to the Mount Mitchell. We don’t get similar fog in Colorado, not that I can remember, but Appalachian mountains get it a lot.

It was raining this morning down in Asheville and I was thinking about all the snow we got back in Boulder, so I decided to drive up to the highest mountaintop, mountmitchell on the east coast, thankfully only hour away. It did not disappoint, as we got to the top, it was snowing. My puppy was very happy!




We have two peach trees at our house in NC and this year they got loaded with them, thousands, so many that all branches were down to the ground and one tree started tilting as well. So unfortunately to the peaches I had to take most of them off the trees, otherwise their growing weight would break the trees. I left about one third of them growing and they should be ready in about one month by which probably be eaten by some local wildings.
As for the extra, had to dump it in the backyard…
