wataugaonline.comWhat you looking at
Such a beautiful creature and so silent in flight. I drove by it slowly and needed a double take as it did not move while it was perched on an old locust fence post. I turned around in the nearest driveway and as I approached it again it took flight to this power pole. It’s so cool watching its head turn. It made my week.
Can a local explain why the longer route is the "best route"?
Wondering if a local could explain why Google Maps would choose the 34 min route over the 17 min route. Is it the condition of the roads? I'm looking at the route from a rental house in Fairview to Bearwallow Mountain Trail. TIA!
Truck camping near Linville
Hubby and I have been truck camping near Linville for a few years now and would love to find some new spots in that area. We have the most luck on Steels Creek off of 181. Haven’t managed to find a spot we love near Wilson or Harper Creek yet despite a few tries and many recommendations.
Priorities are- privacy, limited drive-by traffic, proximity to water source (bonus points if it’s stocked for fishing), accessible by 4wd, anywhere in Linville area of Pisgah.
Headed out next weekend and would love to find a new spot!
Rainbow Ridge: LGBTQ+ Facebook Group For Western North Carolina
I created a facebook group dedicated to our local LGBTQ+ community, our allies, and relevant organizations in the area. The goal is to make this a central hub for sharing information, resources, events, support, and connections—bringing together community members, advocates, and local groups in one welcoming space. If you're part of our local LGBTQ+ community, an ally, a queer friendly business, or represent a related organization, we'd love to have you join. Looking forward to building a strong, supportive network together! If interested search for Rainbow Ridge on Facebook.
Davidson River adventure next weekend
I am planning a little adventure next week - I want to camp in my truck along one of the forest service roads and do some fly fishing.
My question - how crowded do you expect it to be? More to the point, how difficult will it be to secure a camp spot?
