Little Greenbrier School & the Walker Sisters
We walked back over The Little River to reach Metcalf Bottom Trailhead.
A short way along the trail, this Bunny just stood its ground!!!
After that scare....
we continued on through a Rhododendron tunnel ;o)

Little Brier Branch runs along the trail
There were some rocky sections on the trail.
We crossed back over the stream as we approached the school.

The school was also used as a community church.
There is a cemetery in the front yard.

Just past the cemetery, Metcalf Bottom Trail connects with
Little Greenbrier Gap Trail which heads towards the
Walker Sisters Cabin.

Of course we were there very early,
so we had it all to ourselves:o))
We just sat a spell and pondered awhile!!
We headed back down the trail,
passed the school and crossed the bridge.
We did see a little more wildlife ;o))
Back across the Little River

Boy if those pictures were taken with your new camera, they walk all over mine. I have many of the same shots and was there early also but the light coming in the windows of both buildings ruined my pictures. Love your wildlife. Don't think I saw any.
ReplyDeleteIf I remember correctly, it was a cloudy day so I probably didn't have much sunlight coming through the windows. But regardless, we all got to see two very pretty and interesting places!!
