The Musical History of Western North Carolina

History of Music in the Blue Ridge Mountains

 

Sitting on a mountaintop in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, legend has it that if you listen very carefully, you can still hear the drumbeats of the Cherokee Indians that once rose above these mountains.

A Winter Hike

Hiking in the Snow

Stepping onto the trail, I feel like I am greeting an old friend. It’s been a while since I’ve visited, but there’s a connection to something bigger here.

A Good Walk Spoiled: A Self-Proclaimed Duffer Continues Her Golf Struggle

Golfing

By all rights, I should have given up the game of golf years ago. There was the time, in the beginning, when I dutifully followed my husband to the practice range and proceeded to hit every golf ball in my bag with robotic precision. It was only as I swung at the last one that I noticed the huge baskets of range balls provided beside [...]
