Fall in Banner Elk

The Elk

"Nature's first green is gold
It's hardest hue to hold
It's earliest leaf a flower
But only so, an hour
Then leaf subsides to leaf
So Eden sank in grief
As dawn goes down to day
Nothing gold can stay."
- Robert Frost

A Sunday visit to Westbend Winery for a wine tasting hosted by Carolyn Huggins. Enjoyed touring the winery, learning how wine is made, and the wine tasting. What a beautiful fall day.
