We have discovered that people in this little mountain town are friendly and eager to meet folks. You see most all of them are on vacation too. Tom and I met this nice lady on another of our morning walks.
Linda is here all the way from Charlotte, North Carolina. It is not unusual to meet someone from Texas, Oklahoma or even Kansas....but North Carolina is way over on the east coast. Linda and her husband come for a month every summer and rent the very same little (red) cabin. We have a lot of these little tourist cabins in town...mostly built just after WW II. Linda told us that she has been coming here since 1949! Yes, she came as a child with her parents.It is amazing what you find out when you stop to say hello.
Everyone has an interesting story, and you are a good listener. Do me a huge favour? Please see her again and ask for the contact to rent that little place, if it's not too much trouble. Contact: mura.kate@gmail.com Huge thanks if you can do it.
ReplyDeleteI would be happy to.
DeleteThat is far away, but they apparently love to be there. The house looks a bit Scandinavian style.
ReplyDeleteI think more people should talk to more people �� You know what I mean Janey, people should be more interested in hearing other stories!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more Grace. I notice when I meet someone new that if they only talk about themselves and ask no questions of me...they are not interested in being my friend. I also try to learn from that.
DeleteMy husband always says "everyone has a story and you need to let them tell it."
Deleteadorable.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely cabin!
