Welcome to Laurelledge

Welcome to Laurelledge! Welcome to LAURELLEDGE LORE.

We moved to our new mountain-side home in Wilkes County, North Carolina, in 1972. Some of you lived there with us. Many of you visited us there.

We got the name for our new home from the ledge of laurel that enhanced a spot just north of us. Wish you could have seen it in those days! That ledge was almost breathtaking when in bloom.
On the west side of our house we had a purple rhododendron which was almost as tall as the house. It, too, was breathtaking when in bloom. Hope that someone is living there and enjoying those blossoms this spring.

We spent twenty-two wonderful years at Laurelledge.

Just recently our son Robert established this website for us. I hope you will visit it often. From time to time I will be adding reminiscences to this site. I trust that you will add your words of wisdom to this "Lore".

In case you need guidance for sharing on "Laurelledge Lore" (as I certainly do), check with Robert here. I trust that he will not mind my offering you his assistance.
