If you live around the Polk County, NC or Landrum, SC areas, you might know that I have been writing a monthly feature for Life in Our Foothills. I've been doing that for over four years. That's the magazine published by the Tryon Daily Bulletin. Because of that commitment, I've not been able to do much with this blog. I am weaning myself of the magazine job to enjoy more of retirement. That will include continuing to do small stories for this blog and post videos about local people, events, and places on my Youtube channel - The Country Life with ColumbusMark.
This link will take you to my top five videos, four of which are directly related to the foothills. Take a look and then please subscribe to my Youtube channel.
I post these so you don't have to go driving around looking for your weekly dose of inspiration...
Here's last week's latest wisdom from the folks at the Green Creek Fire & Rescue HQ. Not to go into any details, but I found myself in a local laundromat the other evening. That might become an eventual episode in “The Country Life with ColumbusMark.” But the thing that caught my eye (other than most of the washers being out of order) were these very old-looking video games. Maybe my friend and expert on such matters, MikeMartin, knows if these are the real deal? But in the meantime…they at least looked like they were in working order. For sure they’ve seen their share of quarters.
We could all use a good cheer-me-up from the Green Creek Fire & Rescue Department. Here's this week's goodie.
You gotta love someone who puts up a sign like this. And yes, I heeded the caution and gave the puddle plenty of room. Found this sign up in Saluda on Saturday afternoon.
