    What a wonderful place, and a lovely photo. Were you traveling? Was this really in the Blue Ridge Mountains? Is that a little hole in the wall of the cabin? Was it for poking a rifle through? Or is it around here?

    I think it must be a historical spot because no one would leave their woodpile like that – but that does look like a garden.

    Inquiring minds want to know!

    And happy New Year to you and yours!

    Thanks Linda, I took this shot on vacation in November of 2007. We had planned a summer vacation with all of our kids. Instead, I spent the summer in radiation therapy for a spot on my vocal chords. By the time I was cleared the kids had all gone on with their lives, so it was me and Sherry. We did all of the things along the Blue Ridge that she had always wanted to do…Biltmore, Monticello, Mabry Mill.

    Coming south along the Blue Ridge Parkway after leaving Monticello we hit an early snow on the ridges from the night before. This photo is one of the first I took that day. The cabin is part of the Mountain Farm Museum at Humpback Rocks. Since we were traveling in November, all of the facilities were closed and locked so we couldn’t do the touristy thing and wander through the exhibits…Or the restrooms at most.

    Thanks for stopping by.

    Thanks Lou. We had spent the day before driving up the Shenandoah Valley. On the day this was shot we were heading south to Floyd, Virginia.
