Just a small mountain cottage...

Autumn in the country.

Michie Tavern

Michie Tavern is an 18th century tavern that is still serving mid-day faire. It's a museum now, and a restaurant with some of the best fried chicken you'll find anywhere! It sits on a mountainside outside Charlottesville.

Can't get into the garage?

There were a lot of other outbuildings around this old garage. I guess one of them could have been an old farmhouse, but it mostly looked like random outbuildings, including a homemade outhouse. Made me wonder who built them all and where they went. I guess I could have asked the guy in the pickup who found me trolling down his backroad, but maybe he was just trespassing like me.

I'll Take 20 Bags of Mulch and a Gargoyle.

Um, okay.

Palmers Point Grocery

Or all that's left. There are a lot of lakeside businesses that have faded away down the backroads of Southside Virginia and north central North Carolina.

Clays Mill Store

I found this autumn shot of Clays Mill Store while perusing thru a stack of photos in a box. Autumn is my favorite season.

Is it live, or is it Memorex?

This is a picture I took several years ago. I didn't do anything to it in Photoshop, I swear. Originally, I didn't think much of this picture because it was blurry. But now, when I look at it, I think it looks like a painting! How cool is that?

Ain't she sweet?
