Welcome to Little Horse Creek… where it is…
always quiet and peaceful and relaxing.
In times that so many perceive as tumultuous, inspiration becomes even more valuable and important in business. The news on the internet, in the papers and on TV are so filled with negativity that it can be catching. In such eras, those who see positive realities gain an extra edge. This is the place where you leave all this behind and learn how to write or increase and enjoy what you have written.
Improve your writing as you enjoy the peace and beauty of the Blue Ridge… as Merri and I have at our Writer’s Camp.
Our writing career allows us to live part time at our remote North Carolina farm on Little Horse Creek.
Here is the creek…
deep in the forest…
isolated and with many waterfalls.
The creek becomes a bit swollen in the spring time. Changing from this to…
this! The headwaters of Litte Horse Creek start on our land… fed by dozens of pure water springs. It feeds the pond below our main house and…
fills our…
deep woods…
with its Japanese soaking tub that is heated with a wood burning stove and refilled after each soak… so the water never requires chemicals but is always clean.
The creek provides some great trout meals also. Here is a brookie our daughter, Eleanor, caught.
The water refreshes in summer. Here is a…
creekside…
seminar hall where we meet and…
enjoy eating together on the creek side deck overlooking the waters of Little Horse Creek.
We share ideas and learn…
in natural surroundings and…
enjoy our teachings and sharing on the deck…
overlooking the creek.
This beauty and solitude provide many positive inspirations. There is plenty of space to hike. We have put in over…
eight miles of road (the blue lines). Each leads…
to a place… like our…
isolated glen labyrinth where Buddha lives amidst great views. Vistas are…
everywhere. The paths themselves are places of solitude and wonder… quiet places for walking comtemplations.
Blue Ridge mystery leading to beauty… year round and our camps enjoy the summer’s green and gold in autumn.
We grow bold sunflowers and a lot of our own vegetables in the summer.
and have…
farm fresh…
eggs.
In the summer we get to watch the horses being…
lethargic and enjoying the sun.
We invite delegates at our house for afternoon teas with a view.
Merri gets busy in the kitchen…
and cooks up the treats when…
we have seminars.
A few people come stay with us in our…
seven cabins and farmhouses for guests. This is the Blackberry…
Cabin. All have feather top mattresses and high thread count…
sheets and mountain made quilts and Pendleton wool blankets for cool nights.
The blackberry has a great porch and…
rocking chairs for idle afternoons. The Trout Cabin…
is next door. With a…
big porch for Bar B Qs plus a king…
size bed.
The Johnny Appleseed Farm House sleeps up to 7 and the Wildflower Cabin is here as well.
The cottage and cabin sit right on the…
creek so you sleep at night and gain the energy and imagination of the…
sounds of the waterfalls.
We converted this…
falling down shed into a great Guest Barn… with all amenities including a pillow top king size bed. This is very comfortable.
However if you are not into comfort we have a primitive cabin…
deep in the woods… cold water and a pot bellied stove for heat and cooking… but still a great pillow top king size bed.
Get away from the gray humdrum… go where your horizons expand.
There is inspiration in “them thar hills”. Seek it. There has never been a better time for a micro business and an upbeat outlook on life.
One kind reader sent me two coffee mugs recently, enamel bumper stickers if you like, that said “Ille Gitimati Noli Carborundum.”
The translation is “Don’t let those who are illegitimate wear you down”. Refresh… rejuvenate and learn with us at Merrily Farms.
Look for inspiration in your passions. They may lead you to strange places… in the minds of the humdrum herds. Yet success is waiting for you in the nooks and crannies where others do not go.
There are limited accommodation facilities for some delegates to stay on the farm. For details contact Merri at merri@garyascott.com
We look forward to begin sharing writing and publishing now that leads up to the Writer’s Camp in July on the farm.
