Come Fly Away


These are images taken midday Tuesday 21 Aug 2007 immediately after the closing in Bakersville, North Carolina.
They were shot on our land and the half acre on the adjoining south side of the ridge.


The opening shot is the top elevation of our land.

Though her face is not clear Victoria is glowing with excitement.

The open glade with giant hickory trees is our southern neighbor's land.
We will probably make an offer to buy this beautiful half acre to give us more southern exposure.

The ball park is near due south of our land.

The mountain is Green Mountain to the west-north-west.

The crooked crotch of the hornbeam tree is between the studio site and the east fence line.

Our land is small and steep, we love it.
