Update about blogCa

Who knew all this would happen afterwards! Flat Creek in November, 2024. Much changed by the force of the hurricane floods in Sept. 2024. The deck of the bridge is now under that pile of debris.

Another greenway trail

 Black Mountain NC is blessed to have lots of places to walk, and most are pet friendly as well as able to be walked by those who look for easy level trails.


A brief preview of where the trail runs.

The greenway has been named in honor of Emily (not the one I knew)

Like most original mountain roads, and thus many of today's highway routes, this walk goes along Flat Creek.
It's at its tamist along here...no white cascades as can be found further up in Montreat.



But don't be fooled by this flat pretty easy going stretch, as this is the area which floods most easily when we get several inches of rain in a short period of time.




I went as far as the bridge, then turned around to go meet a friend for outdoor lunch.

I liked the design of the bridge.



Today's quote:

There are no guarantees. From the viewpoint of fear, none are strong enough. From the viewpoint of love, none are necessary.
