Scenes from Little River Road

 

English Mountain

 

In the fall we did a scenic backroad drive to English Mountain located in the western foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.   The fall leaves were just beginning to show their magnificent colors.

Blowing Cave Grist Mill

 Blowing Cave Mill was completed in 1880 and is located near the head of Flat Creek in the Byrd's Cross Roads community.  The mill processed flour and cornmeal.

Fox Cemetery

 

Fox Cemetery was established in 1787, the site was an early German settlement ground with the first settlers being the families of Jacob Derrick, Jacob Bird and Adam Fox.  A fort once stood on Derrick's land nearby.  Mark Fox was scalped and killed by Indians on Muddy Creek in 1787.  He is possibly the first buried there.

Harrisburg Covered Bridge

 The Harrisburg Covered Bridge was constructed in 1875 in Sevier County, Tennessee.  It crosses the East Fork of Little Pigeon River.

Your Star will always Shine

Your Star Will Always Shine

A free spirit God design,

With her own rhythm and style.

Each step is filled

With Enchantment and Charm.

Through these magical journeys

For seven years,

Our Danseuse, we thank you

For these memories you gave.

"Treasuries Forever'

You allow us to share,

In these moments in time.

Your Star will Always Shine,

In our hearts and our minds.

"The Snow Maiden" Poem by PL Fallin

The Snow Maiden

The Snow Cascaded, Swirled and Blew
In the Magical Kingdom
Of the Land of Snow;

Amidst the Snow Flakes and Fairies,

The Snow Maiden Dances,

Twirling on Pointed Toes

From Moonbeam to Shadow;

Her Silhouette we followed 

From Forest to Meadow;

Snow and Ice are Her Friends,

The Coated White Earth is her Floor;

Center Stage from Heaven

The Stars Shine on Her,

Seeking no other;

She is the Snow Maiden

Graceful and Fair,

In her Fairy White Dress

With Star Light in her Hair;

Dancing in Bliss

With no Worries or Cares,

Delicate and Graceful

From Finger Tip to Toe,

She's Eloquent to Behold;

Her Eyes Sparkles like Crystals,

Amidst the Snow Fairies and Sprites,

She Waltzes in Solace

With Mystical Delight;

From Winter's Breath She Sprang

Twirling and Dancing in the Chilled Air

Through the Forest and the Fields

The Wind Whispers her name,

Brilliant and Translucent, Crystal

The Maiden of Heaven's White Veil.
