I took this shot as I was feeding the horses early in the morning. The two horses are great mates and the light was magic, as it often is first thing!

Pen and ink drawing of a guy I knew once he was the most fasionable transient I ever knew. So the guy he was homeless right and he layered his suit pants and his suit shirts and all he needed was some shoes and a coat. So I bought him a suit jacket and shoes and he got a job. In Missoula Montana there are a lot of homeless people. I have been fortunate enough to make friends with many. I try to do what I can for people! God knows my heart is full and my pockets are empty…. / God bless and One Love, / Kimberly Hoffard

I go to the old ‘New River’ in Foster Falls, Virginia quite often in hopes of finding the illusive Blue Heron that likes to play hide and seek. This particular day I knew by the light that the ‘golden hour’ would be special, so I asked a friend to ride down with me to see what we might find. While walking towards the blue Heron spot I happened to glance back over my shoulder and spotted this Mom Fly fishing while her grandsons, not so patiently, watched and knew this was what I came to shoot! / I love the story of this moment, a Mom stopping at the river to grab a little peace before heading back on the road and towards all the demands of the home and Motherhood. / I yelled permission to continue to take her picture and she graciously agreed. we chatted before all of us ‘Moms’ moved on down the road towards home and our obligations. It was a golden moment to remember and so glad that my friend and I were there to capture it.

Early Appalachian life must have been filled with golden mornings. Wonder how often they would pause from their chores, and just drink in the glorious light filtering through the fog. Stopped and gave thanks to God for his blessings and felt at awe with his creation. Wonder how often they knew they had found their pot of gold. Not in a monetary sense, but in the riches of life. They struggled from day to day but how often did they rejoice at what they were blessed with. The coolness of the mist upon their face. The warmth of the sun as it forged its way through the fog. The sounds of nature as she too is awakening to greet the morn. Wonder how rich they may have felt seeing the warm glow softly lighting the fruits of their labor. You too can feel this. You too can feel awakened and renewed with the dawn, if only willing to experience it. Visit and help preserve that which we are blessed with.……Image taken at the Mountain Farm Museum, GSMNP

Sepia Toned of a previous…Morning sun filters through the trees at John Olivers Cabin with a few dogwoods in the background…..The Oliver’s bought land in the Cove in 1826 and this cabin site remained in the family until the Park was established. The house is typical of many found on the eastern frontier in the mid-1850s, and reflects the skills and techniques brought into the mountains by descendants of British and European immigrants…..Split-rail fences require much more timber than other types of fences, and so are not common in areas where wood is scarce or expensive. However, they are very simple in their construction, and can be assembled with few tools even on hard or rocky ground. They also can be built without using any nails or other hardware; such hardware was often scarce in frontier locations.These fences are sometimes refered to as Worm Fence due to the back and forth placements…This cabin is located on the Cades Cove Loop Road, in the Great Smoky Mountain N.P.

One may wonder why after building one of the finest houses in the Cove, they didn’t tear down the old one. Since they lived in the end of the 19th century it would be hard to know for sure. We can surmise reasons from what we know of that era. Those that ventured into the mountains were a resourceful people. They were prone to not waste anything or taking anything for granted. What they had they got by the sweat they put in it. Perhaps they were more worried about heating the main house up cooking a meal or canning, than they were of the appearance of Matilda’s cabin. Maybe they wanted room for kids later on or a place for strangers to sleep. It could be used for a warm place for some of the livestock; it would a beat milking the cow in the freezing barn. We may never know what they used it for, for it had many possibilities. We know times were hard and you usually worked from “can see” to “can’t see”, septine on Sundays. They lived off what they could provide their selves. Perhaps they just left it to remind them of how good they did have it…..more info on these cabins can be found on the other images of the same place….made in Cades Cove, GSMNP !

Big difference in probably one of the worst built and best built cabins in the Smokies the smaller shabbier cabin of Matilda’s was hurriedly thrown together. The larger very well built cabin was built by Henry Whitehead after he married her….. There is always room for improvement wheatear it be in buildings, our own lives or our photography/Arts. So often we get hung up on our way being best. Usually it is only best for us. Never be afraid to try and do different things, ya never know it could be a big improvement in your on life/works…The planks on the end of the big cabin was placed over the sawn logs on this side of the cabin. This was the side that caught most the bad weather and improved the weather ability of it. The sawn logs already were masterfully crafted but Henry saw they could be improved upon…………More on Henry’s place are found with other photos of this place images below are also links. The Smokehouse can be seen in the far back side of the cabins.

I wandered down a snow-covered country road this morning and found some beautifully covered pine trees and an old split rail fence. The old, dirt back roads harbor some peaceful and serene scenery that one seldom sees… /
