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.
Felt like home
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!

This weekend we went overnight to Asheville. I didn’t take any photos with my big cameras, only a few shots with my phone. But we stayed at the recently opened A Loft hotel, right in down town, which was pretty cool. They upgraded us to the pool level with our door opening on the terrace with our own private terrace level. It as really convenient, but you have to make sure to lock those terrace doors. Next room to us was rubbed in that afternoon, iPad and some other expensive toys disappeared. There were a bunch young females staying there, all bridesmaids for the upcoming weekend wedding. They forgot to lock the door.
Since we are on the subject of Asheville, we are going to see something from that area. I took this photo at Biltmore Estate last summer, it was part of my short time lapse video, some of you who has been here for a while will surely recognize. I think they cut the grass just an hour or so before I took this, I really like how those lines are taking my eye all the way to the house.
