How I love the Blue Ridge! We found another waterfall that we had not hiked to before. It was not a hard hike, but was on one of those paths less travelled although we did meet two groups that were hiking to the same falls. I guess with internet access it is a lot easier to find these places. Anyway, we hiked to Rufus Morgan Falls. It was not the most beautiful falls I had ever seen, but nevertheless, it was an enjoyable hike and a very pleasant day.</p> <p><b>Directions:</b> <p>From intersection of US 64 and US 441/23 travel west on US 64 for 5.9 miles to the "Wayah Bald" sign and turn right onto Old Murphy Road. Travel on Old Murphy Road for 0.25 miles and turn left onto SR 1310 and drive 6.5 miles to FR 388. Turn left and drive 2.0 miles to parking area. <p><b>Rufus Morgan Falls is about a 50 feet high cascade.</b> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-YZIDP8NQaLo/TlVLoUbG54I/AAAAAAAAT38/w3fnKz2T5MA/s1600-h/P1060872%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none;

This is always one of my favorite things to do. We saw some gorgeous scenery that day. In fact some of the scenery looked just like the background of this blog. I could have sat there all day taking it in. It was just the most amazing feeling, kind of like eating your favorite dessert or candy, you know, you put in a mouthful and just let it sit there a while making sure you get all the flavor and just savoring it, trying to let that taste last as long as possible. I enjoyed this scenery just as much-I just wanted it to last forever. It sure makes me think about God and His goodness and His mercy and for all the creation He has given us to enjoy. There is no way one can honestly deny The Great Creator! And to think that He loves me! How Can It Be that God would love a soul like me? How can it be!</p> <p> </p> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-7u5329sH1us/TlVMdRwWkvI/AAAAAAAAT5k/1sY4cenrYDU/s1600-h/P1060904%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px;

Usually it is pretty crowded, but since it had been raining hard, there was now only one car in the pull off. It was still raining lightly so we got out the umbrella and headed down the steps to see the falls. It was very pretty after the heavy rain. It really made a nice end to the day. </p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-_SQHsgKq4bw/TlVPBwUyeyI/AAAAAAAAT8I/6xZ2yctJA_Q/s1600-h/P1060962%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="P1060962" border="0" alt="P1060962" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-ZlfIHIcCUCI/TlVPDEn3jlI/AAAAAAAAT8M/E2lY9WQ05AM/P1060962_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="184"></a><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-yfBoowv1lGI/TlVPFC0az-I/AAAAAAAAT8Q/hOE_6JWikg8/s1600-h/P1060963%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="P1060963" border="0" alt="P1060963" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-ttQqaDJPjbI/TlVPGnxKVWI/AAAAAAAAT8U/HVn6tMw7_wo/P1060963_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="184"></a><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-Kys-3d-SSTs/TlVPJJeblHI/AAAAAAAAT8Y/pkVysBXRQ0A/s1600-h/P1060964%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="P1060964" border="0" alt="P1060964" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-o8S5mOTGNDk/TlVPKihDIiI/AAAAAAAAT8c/rDhhQYIi1qA/P1060964_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="184"></a><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-h4Gkd_batI4/TlVPMbkmY2I/AAAAAAAAT8g/FsXxpvsWPDA/s1600-h/P1060965%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="P1060965" border="0" alt="P1060965" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-PMA-NCwpX-A/TlVPN-Ws7zI/AAAAAAAAT8k/uZDGL2omsjA/P1060965_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="184"></a><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-20WIlmMkWdo/TlVPQNabpuI/AAAAAAAAT8o/dUTR4eLCang/s1600-h/P1060967%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="P1060967" border="0" alt="P1060967" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-kqWCMBsFz-Y/TlVPRcENE2I/AAAAAAAAT8s/ZfTVGe89sjw/P1060967_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="184"></a><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-0o7VfY-VmY8/TlVPTY8UqFI/AAAAAAAAT8w/Y6GDWQxK6ho/s1600-h/P1060968%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="P1060968" border="0" alt="P1060968" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-YMJUg-pD9ZA/TlVPUh_ykVI/AAAAAAAAT80/f_6AOc_RVSI/P1060968_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="184"></a></p> Ellenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11487080489337512784noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6633037383564676993.post-34736277457893793642011-05-13T11:27:00.001-07:002011-05-13T11:27:47.632-07:00More of the Mountains!<p> </p> <p><font size="3">The mountains are my favorite place to go!

We had thought about staying somewhere in the mountains, but decided instead to take day trips. I would much rather use my own facilities anyway, and since we are so close to the mountains and other hiking areas, we opted for this instead. We had a great time. </p> <ol> <li>On Sunday, the 13th, we went to <a href="http://crossroadsbaptistnc.com/index.html" target="_blank"><font color="#c0504d"><strong>Crossroad Baptist Church</strong></font></a> with our Mel, Jenny, and the 5 K’s! We enjoyed eating at Wendy’s with them after church! The church is doing well and the Lord is blessing. You can see their website here. <li>We took a drive into <a href="http://www.alleneasler.com/twinfalls.html" target="_blank"><font color="#c0504d"><strong>South Carolina and hiked to Twin Falls</strong></font></a>. It was a beautiful day and this was a short easy hike. I do so enjoy God’s scenery and am thankful for it. <li>On Monday, we went to <a href="http://www.ncparks.gov/Visit/parks/crmo/main.php" target="_blank"><font color="#c0504d"><strong>Crowder's Mountain</strong></font></a> and hoped to hike one of their very pretty hikes which we have done before. But my shins were not doing well today so we walked a little ways along the pathway and turned around. <img style="border-bottom-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-left-style: none" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-disappointedsmile" alt="Disappointed smile" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_j04D848wwLk/TWQHiIzheAI/AAAAAAAALR4/EBJqJjj94pM/wlEmoticon-disappointedsmile2.png?imgmax=800"> We will just have to do that another day. We headed toward Charlotte to go to the <a href="http://www.discoveryplace.org/imax/" target="_blank"><strong><font color="#c0504d">IMAX theatre</font></strong></a>, stopping at Cracker Barrel along the way for our Valentine lunch. We viewed “The Alps” which is a true story about a mountain climber. It was good and we did not hear too much stuff about “millions and millions of years ago”. I really wonder what happens to these people once they fulfill their dreams of climbing mountains or whatever. <a href="http://mlockhartfam.blogspot.com/2009/09/abundant-life-for-all.html" target="_blank"><font color="#c0504d"><strong>No one will every find fulfillment without Christ</strong></font></a><font color="#c0504d"><strong>.</strong></font> </li></ol> <p> </p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" bgcolor="#ffffff"> <tbody> <tr> <td><a href="http://smilebox.com/play/4d6a4d784e6a557a4e6a633d0d0a&blogview=true&campaign=blog_playback_link" target="_blank"><img style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: medium none; margin-right: auto; border-right: medium none" alt="Click to play this Smilebox scrapbook" src="http://smilebox.com/snap/4d6a4d784e6a557a4e6a633d0d0a.jpg" width="386" height="303"></a></td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="http://www.smilebox.com/?partner=smilebox&campaign=blog_snapshot" target="_blank"><img style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-top: medium none; border-right: medium none" alt="Create your own scrapbook - Powered by Smilebox" src="http://www.smilebox.com/globalImages/blogInstructions/blogLogoSmileboxSmall.gif" width="386" height="46"></a></td></tr> <tr> <td align="middle">This <a href="http://www.smilebox.com/scrapbooks.html" target="_blank">digital scrapbooking design</a> customized with Smilebox</td></tr></tbody></table> <p> </p><iframe title="YouTube video player" height="510" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/i-nbkYg-q0A?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="640" allowfullscreen></iframe> Ellenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11487080489337512784noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6633037383564676993.post-63983873636409367242010-10-21T11:16:00.001-07:002010-10-22T16:34:10.612-07:00Holden Beach, NC<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Click on an image to view a larger version</b></span><br />

This park is near the Blue Ridge Parkway so if you have time you can enjoy the drive and the views there.</font> <br /> <table border="1" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="2" width="400"><tbody> <tr> <td valign="top" width="133"> <a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_j04D848wwLk/TIrU5mcYz_I/AAAAAAAAFaw/dxWQDV0FJtg/s1600-h/P1040058%5B2%5D.jpg"><img style="border-right-width: 0px;

As we look at the mountains and see something different in each view we are reminded of the unsearchable greatness of God and His ways which are past finding out. <br /><strong><em>Psalms 145:3  Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.</em></strong> <br /><strong><em>Romans 11:33  O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!</em></strong> <br /> <table style="width: 400px" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2"><tbody> <tr> <td valign="top" width="133"><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_j04D848wwLk/TE4-txgEuhI/AAAAAAAAFEA/5fcqaPtbuDc/s1600-h/P1030746%5B6%5D.jpg"><img style="border-right-width: 0px;

We headed for Roan Mountain, TN which is on the border of North Carolina. It is a beautiful place. It never ceases to amaze me when I see the beauty of God's creation. While hiking I love to just stop and look around and take it all in! We actually went several places. They included:<br />

</ul>What a wonderful relaxing time! However, we did have to leave the beauty of the mountains and travel to Atlanta, GA for my brother's 60th birthday party! That is so hard to believe. Life really is a vapor. How important to redeem the time and walk circumspectly not as fools, but as wise. (Eph 5:15-16)<br />
The party went well and it was good to see my brother and his family as well as visit my husband's mother who also lives in the Atlanta area.<br />
So glad to arrive home safely and sleep in my own bed! There's is no place like home sweet home.<br />

Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts. Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light. Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens. Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created. He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass. Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps: Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word: Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars: Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl: Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth: Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children: Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.

It was Saturday and although we had a cabin in the mountains it did not start until Monday. We made a day of it on Saturday and drove up to the mountains since they are not far from home. We drove along Hwy. 80 out of Marion which is a long winding road that crosses the Blue Ridge. It is an interesting drive and we came across a hike that we had done a few years ago-Roaring Falls. Just a short hike, but pretty and relaxing. Below are pictures driving along 80 and also pictures of the falls. <br />
