My last post from last week's hike. Some disappointments, after all, that's the way things happen. And definitely a site that was worth all the efforts. And for me it was supreme effort!
The beginning of the hike.
The High Falls
Detail of strange rocky stuff in the roots of the fallen tree (used in header photo) - there may be more along the path...

I just went to neurologist yesterday...a cancellation meant I didn't have to wait till my February appointment. I liked him, but he said he's leaving, as the other Doctors have already. Working for HCA is not what Doctors have signed on to do...a profit driven outfit which bought out our local Mission Hospital.
There are some good news and not so good news. I'm not ready to talk about it yet.
Love the waterfall video! It is a nice hike, I am glad you were able to see the falls. Great photos.
ReplyDeleteI will look forward to hearing your good news. Take care, have a great day!
It's very fortuitous to have a referral already and a schedule to go to physical therapy.
DeleteThanks for the video, but what a hike to get to it.
ReplyDeleteToes crossed that the not-so-good-news can be resolved.
Thanks for your "toes crossed" wishes. Now I'd like to see that...toes, I mean.
DeleteI have appreciated your header photo, and I like the subsequent one as well.
ReplyDeleteYou can read the future? I don't even know what the subsequent one will be yet!
Delete...finding a good doctor who you like is often becoming harder and harder!
ReplyDeleteI'm not picky. I've been really lucky I guess.
DeleteI hope so much that the good news outweighs the other stuff.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I guess that's not likely at my age...but there are good aspects still.
DeleteAt least there was good news too.
ReplyDeleteYes, focusing on the positive is always a good idea.
DeleteCurious geology- Fallen trees- everyone must fall...they offer home to little mammals and insects and baby trees so it is really not a sad thing, is it? News from health providers can be terrifying, they tend to err on the side of worst case, just to cover their bases.
ReplyDeleteI have always been fascinated by any aspect of life, whether that which is decaying or that which is growing in the dead things on the ground! My own thoughts and anxieties are probably worse than anything the doctor told me. Of course test results might change that.
DeleteI love your photo at the top of your page! All are fascinating, but that one is especially amazing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing at https://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2025/08/on-recent-vacation-to-midwest-we.html
Thanks so much for sharing NCSue...I remember reading some blogs years ago from someone who lived near Brevard NC. If that's you, hi again. If it's not, hi for now!!
