things to do in murphy nc: From Cantaloupes to... Coffins? It's the Tuesday Morning Flea Market in Murphy, North Carolina! - 07/15/10 04:04 PM

things to do in murphy nc: The Best Family Bonding Happens When You're White Water Rafting on the Nantahala River in North Carolina - 06/30/10 05:49 PM
Nothing says togetherness like being drenched with bone-chilling 46 degree water from a mountain stream while paddling frantically to escape being rammed by a raft full of guys showing off for each other!
Last weekend, we had a family reunion/graduation party in Murphy, North Carolina for our youngest son Shayne.
It was the first time in years that our blended family had been together and some of them had never been to the mountains here.
I decided to start things off the first day with a white water rafting trip for the whole crew down the Nantahala River.
We left … (2 comments)

When I first moved to the Murphy area, I bought 20 acres of land which included about 1,000 feet on the Valley River in Marble, NC. As we met the neighbors, they shared stories of their grandpa's neighbor or their great uncle's best friend finding a gold … (9 comments)

things to do in murphy nc: Summer in the Mountains of Murphy, North Carolina - 07/15/09 01:27 PM
Today is July 15... time to enjoy a taste of summer in Murphy, North Carolina while my glass is still half full. Last night I slipped out on the porch off our bedroom to sit on the rocker and gaze at the mountains in the moonlight. A cool breeze enticed me to turn off the air conditioning and open the doors and windows. Nature's soft sounds played a soothing lullaby for my restless soul.
The other day we made a summer memory - my youngest daughter and I. She's thirteen, born in the age of Ipods and cellphones, forever connected … (6 comments)
