Today I would like to share with you some of the beauty of our little spot here on the mountain. The first photograph is of the great view from our yard to the North West, of Mountain Scenery.

The sceond photograph is of my friend the Red Tail Hawk sitting in a Walnut tree about 2,000 yards from our yard...what a beautiful friend..but very camera shy.

The next few photographs are of some of our beautiful wild flowers that I planted from seeds in a new flower bed I made this year.

Bald Rock Falls

There is a place nearby where we live that the locals call "Bald Rock Falls" because of the huge bald rocks, and a sometimes waterfalls that comes down the rocks when there has been enough rain to make it run down the rocks, it starts from the very top, "waaaaaay" up there,and cascades down the rocks and then drains into a small stream at the bottom and goes under the road through a culvert to the other side of the road and down the mountain.

The source of the water is from a spring at the top of the mountain.

Click on the photographs to enlarge for a better view.



This is a photograph of the cascading water coming down the rocks.

All around the base of the waterfall and beside the road there are wonderful wildflowers.
