Thoughts from the mountains on this election
Up the mountain road near us on the way to Hiwassee Dam, a sign at a small country church, saying something like this:
Yet, in front of many of the houses nearby, little shacks with junk and dead cars in the yard and little insulation or even siding, lots and lots of McCain/Palin signs.
Hmmm.
Then again, in the Asheville Citizen Times, a 103 year old woman voted for the first time in her life. She and her husband raised their children in a log cabin and she says she never voted because 'he took care of all that'.
Urged by a granddaughter, she got in an absentee ballot -- for McCain. 103-year-old woman becomes first time voter.
Speaking of those fall colors: Photos at Southern Highlands Cam.
'Never fear change. Think how glorious fall is'.
