Ok ta da! here are my answers! I hope everyone is enjoying doing this. I know I've been surprised at some of the answers and some I already knew.
1. My house is going to be in Jefferson, NC. I already have 4 acres up there elevation 4K feet on the top of Buck Mt. It looks just like the Highlands...and the mist comes in during the afternoon. It sometimes gets up to 30 mph winds up there but it's like you stand there and you can hear the pipes... Going to start building my permanent home up there in 2008.
2. My favorite physcial feature on men are the eye's first...they tell me if he's a liar, or truthful and if he's sincere or just flirting...I feel like I can touch his inner self and decide if he's to be trusted or not. Then I look at his teeth. I would never date a man that didn't have teeth...
3. Wake up time: as late as possible
4. refrig
5. Rude inconsiderate people send me up the walls...ever been in the grocery store and someone walks down the middle of the aisle and won't get over to the side so you can pass...I've actuallly reached over and moved it for them and they still don't say excuse me...I really want a battering ram on the front of my grocery cart so I can run their as- over...then I can turn around and smile sweetly and say "Excuse that, a------"
6. Instrument, hummmmmmmmm already play piano but would love to play the violin
7. Purple, purple and more purple! Sister Elspeth always wants it when we are together in the chat room but she's very gracious and lets me have it cause she's really sccared I'll go get my shopping cart
8. SUV (want a new jeep)
9.Super power? I'd like to be able to become invisible so no one would know I'm there. Then you could go in and out of anywhere...you check to see who was really your friend and who's not...you could sneak into your bosses office and mimicking his hand writing put a reminder note that said "give Annabelle a raise" and a New jeep

Annabelle, are you talking about the Jefferson N.C. in Ashe county? If you are my husband and I go to Jefferson and West Jefferson quite a bit and other parts of the county. We both have ancestors there. We started our genealogy search at the Ashe County Library. Very nice library with a great genealogy room. Tons of info. I don't think I have ever been to Buck Mt., have been to Pond Mt. My husband has several relatives buried up there beside the church. Small world!
Go to the Chevy Dealer downtown Jefferson right before downtown on the Left. Turn onto Buck Mt road and follow up. When You get to Laura Lane, turn R and that puts you up on Buck Mt Estates and I have the lots on the left side of the top right before the Beige and slate house... yes, yes, yes! I'm excite here! A
Golly Gee Whiz! Annabelle, Can you believe this? Maybe we'll get to meet one day. Do you have family living in this area? My husband has a cousin's wife that has a shop in West Jefferson, I think it's called Linda's. We both have a lot of ties to the Ashe county area. Sometimes we go and just spend the day and sometimes we stay the night. Usually we stay at the Glendale Springs Inn. It's in the mountains and when we get up to go have breakfast, you can barely see your hand in front of your face. It is bathed in mist. At this little Inn we stay at, they have a resturant you can walk to and on the weekends they have live entertainment, which is usually bluegrass music. A very enjoyable time.
I want to take a day trip there before long. If I do, I'll be sure and go up Buck Mountain and look at your land.
Have you noticed all the christmas tree farms they have in Ashe?
Yes the Christmas Tree farms are beautiful! No I've never heard of the Inn...I'll look it up and stay next time I go up. I'm going back up to go to the Court House after Christmas...have to get a list of land owners in that area so we can pressure the developer into piping in water from the city...it's now or never... Annabelle

Where now the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was blowing? Where is the helm and the hauberk, and the bright hair flowing? Where is the hand on the harpstring, and the red fire glowing? Where is the spring and the harvest and the tall corn growing? They have passed like rain on the mountain, like a wind in the meadow The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow Who shall gather the smoke of the dead wood burning Or behold the flowing years from the Sea returning? ~ J.R.R. Tolkien
