Dear Traveler,
The warm, sunny days and green hills of June are all I can think about lately. And wow, summer sure looks good on Transylvania County. The mountains just seem to come to life this time of year, don’t they? There are so many trails to explore, waterfalls to chase, views to see — and so little time! All this outdoor adventure puts a spring in my step and a song in my heart.
Speaking of songs, several live music events are happening this month that I can’t wait to check out. And the best part? There’s a little of everything across the musical spectrum, from full orchestral performances to laid-back acoustic jams at the local watering holes. Sounds like fun, right?
I can’t wait. Let’s make plans in July, too.
Explore onward,
