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.

Driving those windy twisty country roads through the Smoky Mountains is idyllic! I love the photos I was able to take in that part of the world!

Wow. Those photos are amazing... especially that first one - it would make a beautiful painting! I miss the South... having lived in Georgia for many years, there's nothing like it.

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.

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!

The winding twisty roads in North Carolina were probably Jim's favorite place on earth. Matter of fact there is a road called The Dragon, and that is where we decided to spread his ashes. There is a memorial stone in the cemetery, but the guys spread his ashes from the back of a motorcycle and I'm positive he would have been delighted!

He is making a sincere effort to be available, answer questions, and work with the team. I am so hopeful that he can keep it up. I get the feeling that he was pretty isolated from the community part of Steem and is enjoying what he is finding.

No it's a Discord issue. At first it wasn't bad, but then as more and more people joined in it seemed to become worse and worse and worse. There is an alternative link to go and listen and it was crystal clear and I should have switched over much sooner than I did.

Very nice photos. The roses remind me of the bushes we have in our back yard. I haven't been to North Carolina since I was a kid, but it would be nice to get back there some day. Those roads remind me of the ones in Kentucky near where my sister used to live.
