Busy week, starts out with the 1st annual Crafty old ladies Art and Craft Show. There were 7 of us with a variety of items. Not a lot of of traffic but everyone sold something.
My stuff
Sunday is a beautiful day so we drive up to the Cataloochee Ski Area. Maggie valley is decorated for Fall.
Foliage is reaching Peak color up there.
We parked about 1/2 mile from top and walked.
Holy Cow!
What a view!
Get back to campground and see that bigfoot is enjoying the Fall foliage as well!
Finish the rock I started painting at the craft show.
It's getting quiet around here as people return home for the Winter
The leaves are falling fast and furious so we take a ride up to the Blue Ridge Parkway to do a hike at Graveyard Fields.
The colors are stunning on the way up
The higher up we go, the less color there is
We're at the top!
We get near Graveyard Fields and there are lots of cars parked on the road. We test our parking karma and go to the parking lot and find a spot.
Starting with steps isn't a good omen
It levels out
Then we have a choice to make - upper or lower Falls? Lower is shorter so we head there.
We arrive at the top of the Falls
And there are stairs down - a lot of them
We made it!
Tucson takes a dip
We all take a break. Gary spots a large grou heading down so we head out. Our timing was great - just us and 1 other couple we passed 8 people a 5 dogs going back up.
What goes down, goes back up!
A beautiful drive home as well
We get home in time for Tucson to walk with Winnie
