How many of you have a community in your area that is atop a mountain with breathtaking views?  To reach this community, most residents use the private mountain runway.  It must be one of the most spectacular communities I have ever visited. 

Mountain Air was named "America's Best Community."  I wanted to share some of the information and photos from their website: http://www.mountainaircc.com/location/index.php

Located atop of Slickrock Mountain - truly among the highest elevations in North Carolina's unspoiled Blue Ridge Mountains - Mountain Air puts you in the heart of a vibrant, culturally diverse area.

Mountain Air is just 35 minutes from Asheville, whose unique combination of culture and Southern charm earned it its ranking by Barron's magazine as one of the "Top 20 Places to Retire in the World."

With elevations reaching 4,919 feet, Mountain Air stands less than 10 miles from Mount Mitchell, the highest peak in the eastern United States. Here, you'll never be closer to the clear, starry skies. The sunrises will never be nearer or brighter. And you'll never feel more profoundly exhilarated by the vastness and beauty of creation.
