While this site is dedicated to my love, and dreams of a move to, the Blue Ridge Mountains, it will continue to be an ongoing commentary on any subject that strikes my interest. Since my actual experiences in the mountains are limited to the few weeks I can break away each year, many of the subjects covered in these posts will relate to my home on the Texas Gulf coast south of Houston. This is the place I call home and the home of my recent ancestors.

I hope you enjoy your visit and return often. Feel free to comment on anything that catches your interest.
