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/

What a cute little crick!
I love watching crows. Is this a particular type? Ours tend to have much darker beaks, unless they are rooks, of course.
Looks like the places I love to roam. I especially liked the little waterfall and the shot immediately after it. Jim
those white dusted peaks are lovely. do they have names?
Wonderful photos. Same question here, do you have the names of the specific mountain peaks?
so where is all the white stuff? smiles....nice pics....some beautiful mountains....
My series of December day photos would include a lovely bouquet of 3 daffodils that I cut from my yard and put on the table last night for Book Club. Daffodils!! In December!! Weren't we buried in snow this time last year? Also... I have to point out something interesting. Check out the waterfall photo, the bottom center of the waterfall... there's an eye!! It looks like Old Man Waterfall is gazing at you while you take his photo...
Beautiful, looks like an early spring day!
Even in the cold and stark of winter, Mother Nature is beautiful.
December did you say?could be a spring day
Love the crow
Martin, I'm pretty sure it's an American Crow -- we also have Fish Crows -- which are slightly smaller -- and ravens, which are larger. This bird was with a flock of crows and his beak should be black. I can't tell if it's a trick of the light or an anomaly.
Barbara and Kath -- it's the Blue Ridge and I don't know the names of any of the peaks. Mt. Mitchell is at the extreme right but doesn't show up in this picture. I think once someone told me that the one with the steep slope to the left was Big Butt.
Brenda- I saw that eye too!
Wow...those last two are so ethereal they almost seem to be watercolors...you aren't hiding Brigadoon over there, are you?
