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

@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.

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. 🤗 SE Tenn. ##StormHour #weather #trees #writerslife #WritingCommunity

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. 😉 Cumberland Plateau, TN. ##StormHour #mountains #weather #clouds #WritingCommunity
