We spent a magical day with a fun friend on Grandfather Mountain.
Our picnic spot had a view of the whole world.
We then visited with a sweet bear who posed like a pro.
We spied a pair of otters napping.
This rescued Bald Eagle seems relaxed in its new home.
There were few elk resting among the trees.
The museum had a wildflower exhibit that was a work of art.
My favorite part was the mile-high swinging bridge.
I just love our mountains!

Sounds like you had a great day. I also love the mountains, but now live as a flat lander. I manage to take a trip to Appalachia a couple of times a year.

Ok, but I spend my time in northern PA. Our mountains are not quite as big, but we have many great vistas.
