What a lovely day, all around. We walked the two blocks of Main Street in Saluda, shared wonderful conversation and a meal with the very engaging Scott Derks and Hank Stallworth, enjoyed the stroll up to Pearson’s Falls, and popped over to Tryon to see the statue of its favorite daughter Nina Simone. Swoon, sigh…
