Perhaps you live in the city or− a tropical climate?

You dream of the cool mountains where farms, flowers and folks peacefully inhabit purple hills and lavender dales. You would vacation there, have a second home, if your dream came true.

Even if you can’t take a walk down a country lane, ‘git up’ on a horse, tend a garden, or enjoy the companionship of simple people, you can still feel a part of that marvelous calm, savor the colors and imagine all the scents… Please enjoy a stroll through the foothills of the Smoky Mountains as you leaf through my online gallery and slideshows.

A beautiful book!
