Beauty in Opposites

Mountain Laurel on the Blue Ridge Parkway

I took this picture on our last trip along the Blue Ridge Parkway.  I have always loved those mountains in the Springtime.  I'm not sure whether we were in Virginia or North Carolina at this point.  We ended up spending a couple of days in Asheville on that trip.  Dinner at the Biltmore Winery was delicious and when we left our hotel the next day, we drove non-stop back to Florida.

Palms and Dunes at Fred Howard Beach Park, Tarpon Springs, FL

We were both glad to see our beach that next morning.  The best thing about a trip is that we get to come home to Tarpon Springs.

Our country is a place of such diverse beauty.  I am deeply grateful to be an American.

Have a lovely Sunday, everyone.
