Nice. I like Boone. I’ve done a bit of motorcycle riding there. It’s actually what convinced me to pull up 300 year old roots and look to move.
We’re looking closer to Asheville (hospitals, care facilities, etc) so when we get to that point we know the services will be close by. But we have looked as far north as Burnsville (Mt Mitchell) and south to Murphy (mostly because of the Campbell school and they have a Possum Drop on New Years Eve…a place with a sense of humor).
The western side of NC is nice for the mountains and lacks the humidity of the central region (Raleigh down to Charlotte). Still have 4 seasons but winter isn’t 6 months long and 10 feet of snow deep
Visiting Penland School in that area is wonderful. I spent a summer there blowing glass, and for any crafty person it is a paradise, It still has the old farm houses, some built of logs, but the finest up to date equipment and many masters with markets all over the world living in the area.
Holly,
Thank you for this ornament! This is my first printing from the community and my grandson’s second Christmas. I made and personalized it for him and thanks to you and the glowforge community, I now have a new tradition to share with him. I am looking forward to the day I can create my own designs to share.
All of these are very nice, I think acrylic would look great. Maybe a translucent blue for the background, moon in mirrored, Dark green opaque for the midground tree line and a lime green for the foreground. That’s just an idea but I really love this ornament.
