It's quite amazing with mountains all around, in the morning the sun rises from behind Doe Mountain and shines on Iron Mountain. Then in the afternoon, the sun sets behind Iron Mountain and shines on Doe Mountain
Foggy mornings as the sun burns off the fog which rises from the creek at the bottom of the mountain. Each day is a new "sight to behold" and one which I never get tired of.
The quiet is amazing. Especially after being up north in New York City where no one ever sleeps - or at least it seems that way. But what a fun place to visit if you can afford it!
My husband and I lived in a garden apartment on the upper East Side of Manhattan where we had to mow the law and water the plants.We often had barbeque parties out there. One night while we were grilling there was a knock at the door. I went to the door and there were 3 of the tallest firemen I've ever seen. They said a fire had been reported and they had come to check. It seems the super a few doors over with whom we had some disagreements (he wanted to dump his garbage in our yard) had reported us.
Once the firemen saw that we were taking care, they left to get to more important concerns. I did ask them if all of the fire fighters were as tall as they were, but they said they were with hook and ladder and had to be tall to reach the high ceilings in some of the old buildings in New York. Made sense to me. Wonder if it is true?
But now I have the peace and quiet which you never find in Manhattan.
