No farmers' market flowers today - we're in #WNC for the annual gathering of the Friends of the Mountains to Sea Trail.
On our way out to Asheville, we swung by Linville Gorge to scout the Spence Ridge trail and look for the spring at Table Rock, in advance of hopefully going backpacking and climbing out there next week...
The trail was thronged with wild azaleas and irises - an extra joy in a lovely hike!

#WNC #smokymountains I bought a chainsaw. Cleared some limbs. But. Am I just a dilettante mountain man? Have chainsaw; doesn’t use it but once?
Clearing another tree today. Had to top up the oil. So. That makes me feel a little less of a poser.
Now I need to work on making straighter cut without twisting the blade so it binds.

Our city's independent bookstore needs your help!
My local anticapitalist, antifascist, LGBTQIA+ friendly, anarchist, super ultra crunchy, cooperatively owned, and self described "radical bookstore" is falling on tough times.
Hurricane Helene was a doozy y'all, a ton of small businesses like this are closing with no plans on reopening. The FEMA payments meant to help Asheville and WNC are being bogged down in a bunch of red tape, so many of us haven't seen a dime of them yet, even though some of it is earmarked to help small business. And, although tourism is coming back (and we're very very open for business!) the shock to the system was just too big for a lot of folks.
I've seen long-standing cornerstorne-of-the-neighborhood places just like this wink out of existence without any warning, only to be replaced by exploitative, soul-sucking corporate owned chains run by people who don't even live or pay their taxes in our community. I don't want to keep seeing this happen to the town I grew up in.
These are good people who provide an essential service to our city: being some of the loudest, most outspoken defenders of our human rights, and providing civic minded reading material you won't find anywhere else.
They sell books other people don't want you to read, and that generally means those are books you're obligated to read.
Also, they once hosted the backroom of their bookstore out as a viewing space for a no-budget student film I helped make like a decade ago and they were real cool about it so-long-as everyone we invited to the screening bought a coffee or a book. Do you think Barnes & Nobel would do that? Would Amazon?
Check 'em out! Buy a banned book! Become a sustaining member of one of the best independent bookstores around!

We don’t live in bear central AKA Buncombe county. But. Something knocked some of our bird feeders over last night.
Maybe an ambitious raccoon or opossum was climbing up the porch railing. Or. Maybe a bear found it confusing and left before messing with everything on the porch.
Bringing in the feeders for the evening seems prudent.
People neighbor’s trash can was dumped, so, it looks like our bear neighbors are back with for the summer. They’re rough. But quiet.

High School Kaiser (not my real name) and College Kaiser are staring in disbelief, jaws dropped as I say this - but I’m pretty excited to go spend a night in the hometown I grew up in. A lot has changed in 20 years, and the Spousal Unit and I have a hotel downtown (small town) so we can walk to shops and breweries.
It’s a short ride up the mountain from there into the Pisgah National Forest so I hope to be able to snag a few good pics at some overlooks too. #WNC #Appalachian #BlueRidgeMtns

A former TV engineer left a 60' tower in his back yard when he passed away four years ago. Now I'm trying to help a non-ham get it off her property.
Just asked an experienced ham to look at the pictures and tell me if he would climb it. He said, "Absolutely not, that's a death trap." 😭 😭 😭
