A well written post by janeAnne below.  And I have to say that is a fantastic waterfall picture!!!  Thank you for your sweet words about the "sweet spot"

 

Via janeAnne, "Green-o-Lina" e-PRO, ECO, Owner/Broker:

We live in the mountains, a"sweet spot" for  for Eco Development and Commuashevile area waterfall at three creeks eco communitynities and for people who make choices for quality of life.....

Just one look at  our   view-sheds says more than a thousand words in that regard. The Asheville area mountains, the valleys, the streams and waterfalls are natural gifts in-which to delight.

And not only a sense of place announces itself,  but, equally many say,  a sense of community.

 

During difficult days and uncertain times, how good it is to be able to connect with such gifts. The uncommon blessing of neighborliness and verve, prevails here, despite the challenges.

Was it only yesterday that a friend remarked,  " Aren't we glad we live in interesting times?"
To which I replied, with a glimmer and a grin, "You bet!'

Possibly we have inherited a "can-do" attitude that comes with the  magical blend of  our mountain heritage; the indigenous peoples , the Scots-Irish highlanders, the singers and dancers and craftspeople whose legacy is written into the Land. I I feel  refreshed with pure possibility when I stand in the mists of the waterfall, or look out on the local harvest of organically-grown produce and the happy faces of the families who provide food for our tables.


Like the Big Laurel River,a beautiful," intact example of a healthy high mountain riparian ecosystem" where children play and  churches baptize , and fisherman, paddlers, and grandparents converge, it feels to me, even more today than yesterday, that Asheville holds the promise of  welcoming celebration of life to all. No wonder then that Asheville is the "Sweet Spot" for Eco Development and Communities I am proud to represent and love to visit.

Thanks Mary for your comment.  I think everyone deserves to see such a "sweet spot" at least once in their lives, hopefully it won't be too long before you can make it here.
