Coleman Boundary (Big Ivy)

Saturday Kristie and i went for a little drive towards one of our favorite areas- Barnardsville..We drove until we came to Big Ivy.. I've been to this point before but never went no further then the entrance UNTIL this day!! Read the General Info about the area..

This object in the photo below struck both of us as odd.. It looks like a piece of sheet metal right in the middle of the ravine.. It was very shiny and metalic looking..We ruled out water and we debated about a vehicle or an appliance of some sort.. But anyhow, we knew that it wasn't suppose to be there.. This was very srange to us..

Eerie Feeling from The Old Past at the Yadkins River

On the way back from my parents today, we decided to look for this area where this guy saw a bigfoot on the banks of the Yadkins river.. This area is right off of Hwy 40 and in between Winston Salem and Statesville.. Well, when we found the place, Kristie had gotton this very strong uneasy feeling.. We got out of the car and I wanted to head down the old path but kristie didn't want to go..So I hopped the cable and I headed in.. About 100 yards down or so i came to a gate and by this time, Kristie was walking up behind me.. She definately felt nervous so we decided to head on out..

Homemade Blackberry Pie

A couple of weeks ago kristie and the kids went to the upper part of the property and pick a pot full of blackberries.. Later that evening after i woke up, I went into the kitchen where they were making a homemade blackberry pie.. It was Wonderful!! Hmmm..I can still taste it..Down below is the outcome..

Morning Ride to the Parkway..

One late morning Kristie and I took a ride to the Blueridge parkway from Reems Creek rd on the other side of Weaverville.. Surprisingly it took less than 30 minutes from Mars Hill..

I'm back..

Will be posting some stuff.. Hope everyone is fine!! :>)
