Who Am I? What Am I Doing Here?
- Vicki Lane
- western NC, United States
- I'm the author of The Elizabeth Goodweather Appalachian Mysteries from Bantam Dell. The series includes SIGNS IN THE BLOOD (LA MONTAGNE DES SECRETS in France), ART'S BLOOD, (LE SECRET DES APPALACHES in France,) OLD WOUNDS,IN A DARK SEASON (Anthony Nominee, Best PBO), and UNDER THE SKIN. There's also THE DAY OF SMALL THINGS (a spinoff/standalone)chronicling the unexpected life story of Miss Birdie, one of Elizabeth's neighbors. I came to this weird business late (my first novel was published in 2005) and am still trying to figure it out. As my novels are set in a place much like my real life home, I thought I'd use this blog to share pictures of our farm and county. I've been blogging for over five years now, on an almost daily basis, and the topics have ranged from writing, chickens, food, books, quilts, flora and fauna of all sorts, to the occasional tiny rant. There's no plan, but there are lots of pictures. There's more information about me and my books on my web site: http://vickilanemysteries.com/

Wonderful photos Vicki.
hey i been there...smiles. hope you are having a great time!
The scenery is very pretty and I love the old architecture. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Lovely bit of Americana. Enjoy your visit, Vicki!
I believe you have been in wonderful places my dear... did you take the charming trolley bus??
hugs
I have such fond memories of Charlotte, not least the Yves Delorme (formerly Palais Royal) outlet store at 311 East Main Street. I am still not over the fact that I did not buy that paprika colored French tablecloth when I was there the last time, during their Thanksgiving week clearance sale. ;-)
Enjoy yourself,
Merisi
I always take something positive away from your blog. Always the joy of your photographs. But today's were not just beauty, but a teaching moment to really look around me. No matter what town/city.
Great photos . I am a great fan of looking up as well, even though occasionally it means I almost walk into lamp-posts.
I love Charlottesville and your pictures are outstanding. I always think of The Waltons when I hear Charlottesville.
Those round topped windows could be in Saltaire.
Vicki -- wonderful architectural photos -- have fun -- barbara
It's a very pretty town -- and so much more that I missed. Bt I was in a hurry to get out to my sister-in-law's to visit with her, her husband and my niece and her husbands (coincidently, NCmountainwoman, they are the Waltons too!)
Merisi -- the paprika colored table cloth sounds, well, unforgettable. I still regret a little lapis hippopotamus I saw and didn't buy in Venice twenty something years ago.
Alas, no, I didn't ride the trolley bus, Maria Cecilia. I was on my way back to the hotel when I saw it.
Jennyfreckles --- you and Merisi have given me an increased appreciation for architecture.
