I’ll just leave it at that. :( Well, I will share several pictures from the last couple of days.
A morning view from our deck: 
We went to town to pick up a few things and came back by way of Hwy. 276 and the Blue Ridge Parkway. This is the English Chapel that is in the Davidson River Campground. 
Looking Glass Falls on Hwy. 276:
The river that flows along Hwy. 276:
An old shack somewhere outside of Balsam Grove. Note the Fresh Milk sign and the cat.
Wow.. my favorite is the one from your deck. Colors are brilliant.
I wouldn't want to go home either.
