Oct. 14-16, 2005
It was a normal friday morning in Mid-October, bright sunny, with a little nip in the air. So, normal, yet something's different...but what is it.....OH YEA, we're going to Highland's!!! The Blain/Henderson Fall Trip #1....
Highland's, NC
We stayed in the beautiful Dillard House. Nestled in the foothills of the Appalacian Mountains. This first pic is the WONDERFULLY "FALL-ISTIC" view from our back porch. It was only the beginning! It only got better from there.
As a matter of fact, not even the $7 roast beef sandwich with no chips or a drink, could even put a damper on this magnificant get-away!
Oh and by the way, most (all) of the pic's here are provided by the artistic photography of noneother than David Blain...
As a matter of fact this is Davey's favorite pic ------>
Here are the lovely couples now.
The Ladies Chillin' at Glenn Falls!
The Blain's at Whiteside Mountain, had to hike like 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,001 feet to get to this gorgeous spot! (he he he) but it was so worth it!
This my friends is the Giant Poplar...well, sort of, it's the biggest tree we found on the way to the Giant Poplar. We decided we couldn't make the trek....
Mr. and Mrs. Hendu atop the Whiteside Trail!
Can you believe that this exists!? God is wonderful! He making me love Him more and more with every turn of the head!! By the way this is Culasulja Falls!
Look at this beautiful picture of....wait. Is that...yes it is, it is DAVEY BLAIN!!! Another great shot from Glenn Falls!
Look what Davey and I caught down in the Culasulja Gorge.... An Elder...
Here is Davey and Heather reminiscing at Sunset Rock... it wasn't but a couple of years ago that the Blain's were merely Heather and Davey... Until one Cold Snowy day in February (a couple years ago) that Davey asked Heather Henderson to be Mrs. Blain.......and we all know how that turned out!
The Beautiful view of downtown Highland's from atop Sunset Rock! Breathtaking! Just like everyother view of ANYTHING in this part of the country!
I mean WOW!!! I wish I could put all the pic Davey Took on here. But there's just no room. You'll just have to check it out for yourselves!!
Man, that is Truely GOD'S Country!
