Here are some local scenes and some of my favorite photos.

This is Chained Rock in nearby Pineville, Ky.

This marker reads: " Chained Rock is a boulder formation of Pine Mountain, 2,200 ft. above sea level. The Chain, 101 ft. long with seven pound links, was carried here by a four-mule team in two trips. It is anchored to the rock with pegs 1 1/2 X 24 inches concreted into holes star drilled by hand. In 1933, the Pineville Chain Rock club assisted by the Boy Scouts and the Civilian Conservation Corps replaced an old chain with this chain to hold the rock which by tradition is to protect the city of Pineville, Ky."

Some more views from Chained Rock.

Mountains and fog can create some beautiful sights. Sometimes the fog can make a whole mountain vanish as you can see in the two photos on the right.
