Spring at the lake

Not as many people walking around the lake at 2 pm, (last Thursday) and it's a bit cloudy when I did this half around walk. Didn't feel up to the whole way, so I went 1/4 way, then turned around and came back. That adds up to half around, right?

Anyway, the little red roofed YMCA building in the distance just barely showed over the trees by the lake.

 There were ome visitors who asked me what it was, the YMCA Assembly building for conferences. I didn't mention that it had also once been part of the Black Mountain College.  Sometimes you know more than tourists want to know.

 Cherry trees are starting to bloom.

  2. It looks like a very agreeable walk. I suspect that we may learn to appreciate these local areas more than we already do if the restrictions relating to COVID-19 get more stringent. It is certainly affecting our lives in more ways than we could have imagined. Stay well, Barbara.

    1. May walk around the lake again sometime, but today is steady spring rain, so I'm doing any out-and-about in the car. Hope you stay safe too!

  3. It looks like a great spot, and that tree in blossom is so appealing.

    1. I think spring blossoms are what get us through the bleakness of winter...knowing they will come eventually.
