A throwback ... I took this photo four years ago - it always makes me think of the Native American folktale of the moon chasing the sun out of the sky. Cumberland Plateau, TN. #StormHour #mountains #sunsets #folklore #writerslife

Beautiful. Where is this, Paul?
@glamwalker56.bsky.social Hi Jan. It's nice to find you here too. I haven't been able to leave Twitter completely because there are so many people there that I would miss. Glad I found you.
Miserable rainy day, but a little seed brings by some colorful visitors. Jasper Highlands, TN. #StormHour #mountains #weather #birds #writerslife #WritingCommunity
Beautiful, Martin.
I know I live in the mtns, but c'mon. This is just too much cold and snow. Cumberland Plateau, TN. #snow #StormHour #weather #mountains #birds #writerslife
Sunset before the storm. I wager my reindeer oak (don't you think it looks like one?) is so looking forward to the snow. 4 to 6 inches expected, then a winter slurry. There'll be no getting off this mtn. ๐ค SE Tenn. ##StormHour #weather #trees #writerslife #WritingCommunity
No snow yet. Just sleet and rain. More precipitation expected this evening. High near freezing. Jasper Highlands, TN. ##StormHour #mountains #weather #trees #WritingCommunity
Not as warm as you might think. In fact, downright freezing. Snow expected this weekend. Joys of living in the mtns. ๐ Cumberland Plateau, TN. ##StormHour #mountains #weather #trees #sunsets
A cardinal and his mate came by today. Tgey brightened this cold, cloudy New Year's day. Jasper Highlands, TN. ##StormHour #mountains #weather #birds #winter
Amen!
Wishing everyone a wonderful New Year. And a special thank you to those who have brightened my days with their wise and funny stories and glorious photos. #NewYear2025 #Thankful #photographers #writerslife #WritingCommunity
Boggles the mind how people can do such a thing. Good on you for righting their wrongs.
๐ณ well, that explains a lot. ๐
๐คฃ๐คฃ you always brave. ๐
Another day of rain and fog - on the plus side, it's kept temps above freezing. And I've got a ton of editing done. Really. ๐ Cumberland Plateau, TN. ##StormHour #mountains #weather #clouds #WritingCommunity
No snow here to add to Yuletide's spirit, but I wanted to wish everyone a happy Christmas. SE Tenn . #StormHour #PhotoHour #mountains #Christmas #writerslife
Freezing cold here in the mtns. Tonite low teens F. I continue to see a wide variety of birds. If you can, put some seed or suet out for these lovely creatures. SE Tenn. #StormHour #weather #mountains #birds #writerslife
๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ dragon paid a visit. Oh, you don't think it's a dragon's breath filling the valley? No fanciful thinking then? So sad. Jasper Highlands, TN. #StormHour #mountains #folklore #weather #inversions #writerslife
๐ Priceless.
Crazy sky late this afternoon with threatening storm clouds and a brilliant sunset. I live for moments like this. SE Tenn. ##StormHour #mountains #clouds #sunsets #writerslife

Wonderful! And, of course, you will.

Weather has improved a bit. At least I can see across the valley. ๐คญ Cumberland Plateau, TN #PhotoHour #mountains #weather #writerslife
Meri, will you publish it? I think so many people are fascinated with those reoccurring themes in literature, folklore, and history.
How wonderful. Is this undertaking academic?
๐๐คญ yes!
Cardinals bring such vibrant color in winter. It's been a cold winter here and in many other places. If you can, put some feed out for these wee creatures. Cumberland Plateau,TN. ##StormHour #birds #mountains #winter #weather #writerslife
I love late afternoon light. This snap belies how cold it really is. Never got above 38F and there's a stiff wind. Got loads of editing done today. ๐คญ It was an indoor day. Jasper Highlands, TN. ##StormHour #PhotoHour #mountains #weather #writerslife
