Stopping for the roses

in #esteem6 years ago

While out for a drive on a North Carolina back road, charmingly named Max Patch Road, who could resist stopping to take photos of the roses along the road?

And then continuing along looking for more lovely things to take photos of! I love going on picture taking drives, where the sole purpose is stopping to take photos of all the interesting things you come upon.

Dang Melinda where are you? Hobbitown? :) It's like a dream.

It's becoming a bit of a distant memory, but driving those North Carolina Backroads in the Z with the top down was an amazing place to be!

Wonderful! I never would guess this is US.

There are many beautiful rural areas in the US. You just have to get off the interstate highways and go looking for them!

This is so beautiful !! It looks a bit like in France here in the Alps ! 😉
This is so enjoyable to drive and stop for the photos when you feel the scene has to be shot because it is too wonderful to disappear.. I know and love this feeling indeed 😊

The Smokey Mountains may be even more rural and rustic than the Alps, but those roses are just as beautiful as the flowers in the Alps! I do miss having Jim to go for picture taking drives with.

I feel Jim is enjoying, through your eyes and your contentement, every beauty you are seeing and appreciating...he is never very far from you, especially in those momentss of great appreciation of the nature and beauty surrounding you... 😉

What a sweet thing to say! Thank you.

Just my deep (knowing)feeling my dear, and when it is sweet to be told, then I have to tell it.. 😘 ;-)

Nice car, hehe.

We traveled a lot of roads with the top down and had so much fun in that car!

I hope you have good dental insurance, hehe.
BTW photos are great. That wooden fence is awesome.

Thanks so much! Dental insurance was necessary for me gritting my teeth when Jim was driving it like a race car! Driving was his love and I never wanted to ruin it for him by nagging, so sometimes I had to bite my tongue! The car got sold when Jim got cancer and was no longer able to drive it, but we had 10 years and many miles of fun with it!

I love these photos. I always tell you but your photos are wonderful! I love these roses are beautiful😍

Thanks! I always have wondered who Max Patch was. He should have been proud to have this beautiful road named after him. Maybe he owned that little farm.

Surely. It must be wonderful to visit this beautiful place😍
