I will most assuredly add Gene to my "mountains prayer list"! As I pray, i travel the country in my mind. First to Canada, then the NE US, then over to PA, etc. It helps me envision y'all and other family members and friends as I pray.
I like that idea.
There is a holler that branches due east of the Blowing Rock, the rock not the town. We're about half a mile from the rock. In winter I can see the viewing thingamajigger they built for el tourista's. El tourista's are good for bidness but, a major irritant for locals. Several years ago, on my way to work, a couple in the car in front of me came to a complete stop, ON A US HWY! to take a picture of Grandfather Mountain. Nuts.
