My friend and I have a Christmas tradition now of going to see the gingerbread house competition at Grove Park Inn every year. I took the above photos. The first one is a view of Asheville from GPI. Do you see why our mountains are called Blue Ridge? The next photo is an interesting view of Grove Park Inn from below. In photography that's a worm's eye view. The 3rd photo is reindeer and trees. Then a couple of the gingerbread house winners. The main 1st place winner wasn't there unfortunately. And the last photo is a view of the mountains.

To update you on my writing news, I sold another short story, "Truth or Dare" to True Experience magazine. And I'm working on my latest Scottish historical novel.

Happy Holidays!!!
