We drove from Kentucky to western North Carolina on Thursday. We arrived on Jones Creek by 4 p.m., to spend a couple of days with cousin Jane and her husband, Fred. Jane and Fred completely rebuilt Aunt Rhea and Uncle Wayne’s home on Jones Creek, a place I’ve gone to my whole life. The house redo is amazing, just beautiful! I enjoyed morning walks up and down the road, with the smoky clouds hanging down over the mountain tops. We sat on the porch overlooking Jones Creek. We watched the birds, squirrels, and wild turkeys. We went on a day trip to Waynesville for lunch, then to Asheville to the Arboretum, then back part way on the Blue Ridge Parkway, enjoying beautiful views along the way. Jane and Fred prepared delicious meals and we sat at the table 3-4 hours savoring each bite and talking. We had a wonderful visit to Jones Creek!
