A few weeks ago, Greg and I went to beautiful Western North Carolina to meet some of our family members for a fun weekend. It was a place we'd been before, Lake Lure, but each visit is different, an adventure. I wrote a blog post about our visit last year. It is entitled, "Lovely Lake Lure, North Carolina" (7/5/15).
We spent the night again this year at the fabulous "The 1927 Lake Lure Inn & Spa"-
Luckily, the next day, we got to see an arts and crafts and crafts show on the grounds of the inn.
There were some talented artists at the show...
including Darcy. Beautiful job!
After the show, we met with our family for lunch at a fantastic place, "Larkin's on the Lake."

We really enjoyed visiting with everyone.
The food was absolutely delicious!
The view was spectacular. What a beautiful day!
On the way back home, we briefly stopped at nearby Chimney Rock, North Carolina which has some interesting shops to explore-
And some interesting things to see-
(That's why I love traveling. You just never know what to expect next!)
This is a tourist place that's named for the large rock that's shaped like a chimney that sits high above the small town.
We decided that on another trip, when we had more time, we'd come back to Chimney Rock to visit more shops and to perhaps go to the top of the Chimney Rock itself. There should be spectacular view from there!
How to be happier and more positive: Do something fun like visiting somewhere different. It doesn't even be have to be very far away. It's amazing how many fantastic adventures await us near our own hometowns!

Thanks for visiting! Until Sunday, November 20, 2016, Becky
