34 Comments on The Most Ancient of Mountains - Wordless Wednesday
I agree that the mountains can have a calming effect which we all need. Here in Naples people tend to get into the same rat race that they left up north. Great blog.
Hi Mona, great photo. That alone evokes tranquility and serenity.
What a gorgeous picture!
I like the look of the little deck, which appears at the edge of it all! I could handle sitting there some evening, until my eyelids were too heavy for anything more than sleep!
Mona-That is indeed a great view and they say your home is your safe place from the world. A soft place to land so it is wonderful when you get to be a part of making that happen for folks. Most rewarding no doubt;.
Congrats on the feature
Mona, the relaxed feeling when coming home to a mountain retreat is akin to being on vacation every day!
Pretty shot. That is quite a view from the little deck. I see they kept it small to limit the number of people enjoying the view! (Makes it even more peaceful.)
Beautiful photo, Mona ... but even more beautiful was the sentiment within your post. Being able to say that you find deep pleasure and satisfaction in helping others ... well, that's a gift. I think I see those sentiments in agents more often than any other profession. It's obvious when meeting you and Leslie that your work is a natural extension of your personalities ... and those hoping to buy and sell in the mountains of western North Carolinas are the lucky beneficiaries ...

Mona,
When you live in a place like this, it hard to stay humble.
It's wonderful to help make someone's dream come true.
Mona - Great photograph! My favorite part of this profession is assisting people with making their real estate dreams come true. Sounds like you did just that...made their dream come true. Well done!
Jeff
Hi Mona, I have friends in that area and they love it. Loved your observation on their contentment !
I completely adore the mountains of North Carolina. It is one of my favorite places to visit each year. So I can understand the ease your clients felt, and the satisfaction you felt in turn. Thank you so much for sharing, this definitely made my day.
Hi Mona, A beautiful as a picture. What am I saying? It is ! The view that is. I de-stressed just looking at it. Imagine waking up to it. Just beautiful!
Wow! That's a beautiful picture Mona!! You can certainly use that several places on your website for sure!
Friends, what can I say? I am so appreciative of everyone's comments. I worked all day getting the next few days schedule put together and never had a chance to check AR until just now am so humbled by your responses. I can tell they are all intentional and thoughtful.
To Fernando, it is so painful to think about the devastation the fires are bringing to Colorado and New Mexico. The loss of old growth and wildlife is profound.
To Michael, Franklin does have extraordinary views. This one happens to be in Sylva though at one of my favorite places in the world...my friend Emory's house.
Thank you everyone...a feature? I can't believe it.
Oh how I wish Debbie and I could be there right now! Simply beautiful.....
John, I wish you were too.
Allen, thank you. Maybe one day we can go out photo touring.
There is an emotional paycheck that comes with a commission check. I deal with the hesitancy of people moving to a small town after living in a larger city. I love to bump into them months later and ask them how they like it. Everyone says it is great. Most frequent comment-- they are amazed at how quiet it is.
Gary, I know what you mean. Thank goodness with the exception of one client...everyone has been glad they moved here. With the one who wasn't...you know what they say, Where ever you go, there you are.
We often hear about how quiet it is and how dark at night since we don't have anywhere near the same number of street lights and light pollution.
