Winter's first dusting of snow fell at the higher levels last night. I'm jealous! This photo was taken around 7:00 this morning.

Legends has gigantic burgers, and is a favorite eating spot for locals as well as many return-visitors. How can you NOT love a restaurant with great buns, burgers, and chicken wings -- Bourbon, honey barbecue, teriyaki to name just a few.

They are famous for the size and taste of their hamburgers, and have a delicious menu of burger variations to choose from. The Mountain Burger that I LOVE was delicious… served with coleslaw and chili on top. Shirley Wilde, who was my lunch ‘date,’ loved her Grilled Chicken Wrap.

Legends' new, much larger menu has something for most everyone, whether you want a snack or a meal. They have an extensive beer list and a full bar as well.

Located at 3865 Soco Road, their telephone number is 828-926-9464.

Expounding about our land sales would be considered negative energy. Not much to say except that land isn't selling often these days. This too shall pass.

Winter affords a great chance to see property and views, unobstructed!

We have our first dusting of snow (higher levels) this beautiful Sunday morning.

This photo was taken last Saturday, October 10, in Downtown Waynesville during the Church Street Festival. Here's the set of Flickr photos from the Festival if you are so inclined.
