Holy Cow, I Saw a Turtle Without a Shell in Maggie Valley. Was He Homeless or Naked?

Rain, rain, go away. Maggie Valley is overcast again this morning but it's not raining .. yet. As you can see from the photos, our creeks have plenty of water in them right now.

Here are some 'of interest' links:

Overlooking Maggie Valley Farm Country from a Soco Road Overlook.

Beautiful early morning sunlight was crawling across the pretty Maggie Valley farm early Sunday morning. It's easy to see that our leaves have fallen. This farm can be seen off of Soco Road as you head over the mountain to get to Cherokee, which is a beautiful and winding drive.

I Am So Miserable Without You at this Maggie Valley Creek that It Is Almost Like You Are Still Here!

Early Sunday morning as I went to do an errand, I took a quick detour in Maggie Valley to see how the some of creeks looked. They sure looked cold and rapid. Soon I will be able to capture snow on the banks of the creeks. (I noticed quite a few perfect spots along the creek for an Airstream.)

Up Another Creek in Maggie Valley with My Trusty Camera.

Late Wednesday afternoon in Maggie Valley (11/4/09) I spotted another great photo opportunity on a spectacular Maggie Valley creek. The trees are somewhat bare and brown, but the creek is so beautiful that I don't think that matters.

Speaking of photography, @BradCoy introduced me to Blurb the other day, and I cannot wait to give it a try with some of my photographs. Could be just what I need to make some very special gifts.
