Trying to stay awake tonight, gotta go back to work tomorrow night. There have been several posts and questions about physical beauty and attraction recently. I was thinking about some people who I felt were teally beautiful I had encountered.Before my last serious relationship and parted ways. We were returning from Boone Nc after a weekend there. We went home by Grandfather mountain on the Blue Ridge Parkway. This was late August or early September. It was a misty foggy morning. At every pull off there were cars,and we could see people in the brush and scrub off the sides of the road. We were speculating about what all these people were doing. We went down a slight down grade and the most cleared for a second. A woman steps Out of the Woods wearing a purple bandana pulling long waist length. Gray hair back. She had a man's plaid long sleeve shirt on. With a. Denim apron on and an ankle length gingam skirt. Her face was wrinkled and looked like leather. She had her apron bundled in from of her. As she stepped out of the brush she squatted and emptied her apron into a 5 gallon bucket. We both yelled at the same instant BLACKBERRIES! The car window was down and the woman looked up and smiled when she heard us. Her eyes were as blue. As the sky, and her face that had been the color and texture of a baseball mitt had transformed into the most incredible beauty, filled with joy and glee. She just made me start grinning like a possum rating persimmons. She turned and disappeared with an upright straight walk back into the brush. Forever as far as we knew. Trish claimed she wasn't real but a spirit of the mountain. I just wish I could have sat for several days and heard her story. She touch me forever with just those few seconds. Has anyone else been touched but someone with non traditional beauty??? Cate to share
