Greetings to all folks near and far.

If you love the Appalachian Mountains, do not let winter stop you from planning any winter family vacations or a romantic get away. There are so many beautiful resorts with loads of winter activities throughout the regions.

If you need any help in finding the resort that is right for you, come on in to the forum and post your questions. Together, we can find some really good places to visit.

Join me in my forum to share with us about your favorite winter vacation spots.

Winter in the Appalachian Mountains and hills can get pretty cold and dark at night. This is when folks stay inside, stoke up the fires and gather round the hearth for warmth. Often someone will begin telling stories -- sometimes the stories can get scary enough to send chills down the spine and make hair on the arms of listeners rise in a field of goosebumps.

I always welcome feedback on my articles. Please join me in my forum to comment on this, or any other, article. There are many discussions and some games in my forum -- you are welcome to join them or start a discussion of your own. I am always available to help you learn how to navigate around all the forums if you need assistance. I look forward to meeting you.

Till next time, may your home be filled with laughter and may it ring from floor to rafter.

Blessings and may you walk in peace and harmony.
