    You bet.  It looks like it would be a good exercise climb doing that and plus I want to look inside those buildings on the top.

    spar - I have been up to the top - it is so cool, they also have an elevator inside the mountain that will take you there.  Believe it or not it is a gift shop up there.

    Watch out for this!

    Have a great evening.

    Hi to everyone.  Another pop in.  Night on the mountains in approaching  The scent of Fall is in the air.  It's misty and cool.  Another day has passed...thankful yet worried time passes by much too quickly.

    If you look real hard, you might find one of these.  Sleepy now, but anxious to play!

    Sunrise on "grandfather mountain."  Hope you all have a great day.  All of my posts are just meant to bring a smile, something we all need.  There are no hidden messages or agenda.  Just reaching out to other breast cancer survivors wanting to share a little peace and respite from the ongoing issues we share having breast cancer and going through this journey.
