Meet SWEET HARRY
Your Fall Lawn Deserves A
A Gentle Giant with a Heart of Gold! Harry’s had a few wild nights chasing adventure, and some wild lady doggies, but those days are behind him now! After landing in the shelter, this two-year-old, 40-pound bundle of love stole our hearts the moment we met him. Harry is a bearded collie (we have sent off a DNA test so we will know soon if there is anything else mixed in). He loves everyone he meets, gets along with other dogs, and he knows some basic commands. We’ve taken care of his neuter (so no more romantic escapades), and he’s settling into rescue life beautifully. Harry is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative and on all preventives. Harry is looking for an “active family” who’ll give him room to run, play, and explore. He’s a bit of an escape artist, so a **secure outdoor area** is a must. He’d thrive with someone who loves hiking, outdoor adventures, and lots of quality time together. Ready to Make Harry Part of Your Pack? Here’s how our adoption process works: Step 1: Fill out our online adoption application. Step 2: We’ll review your info and follow up with any questions. Step 3: A home visit may be scheduled to ensure a safe, loving environment. Step 4: Once approved, you’ll meet your potential new best friend. Apply here:

Acknowledge your need for forgiveness and ask the Lord to cleanse you from all sin. Turn away from behaviors and attitudes that separate you from God. Surrender your life completely to Him and invite Jesus to become both your Savior and Lord. Seek out a Bible-believing church where you can grow spiritually and serve others. Begin cultivating a meaningful relationship with God by setting aside daily time for Bible reading and prayer.

Leaf season returns: where to see Fall colors nearby Western North Carolina is once again preparing for its most colorful season. From the Blue Ridge Parkway to the foothills of the Appalachians, the annual transformation of green forests into fiery reds, oranges, and golds draws thousands of visitors. But this year’s leaf season comes with a caveat: the lingering impact of Hurricane Helene (2024), which stripped trees, closed roads, and left scars across some of the state’s most beloved overlooks. Still, experts say the show will go on. “Western Carolina is back open for business, and that includes the famous Blue Ridge Parkway,” said Dr. Howard Neufeld, Appalachian State University’s “Fall Color Guy” in an interview with Queen City News. “You may see patches of gray where Helene took down trees, but you’ll also see brilliant color in areas that were spared.” For residents of Kings Mountain and nearby communities, there are still plenty of accessible destinations within a 150-mile radius to enjoy the season’s spectacle. Here is a guide to the best spots, when to go, and how to make the most of your trip. BLUE RIDGE PARKWAY – ASHEVILLE REGION • Address: Blue Ridge Parkway Visitor Center, 195 Hemphill Knob Rd, Asheville, NC 28803 • Distance from Kings Mountain: ~110 miles (2 hours) • The Blue Ridge Parkway is still the crown jewel of fall color viewing. While some sections were damaged by Helene, including landslides and road washouts near milepost 345, the Asheville corridor (mileposts 382–469) has largely reopened. • Peak color here typically arrives mid- to late October, with higher elevations (above 4,000 feet) turning first. Overlooks such as Craggy Gardens (Milepost 364) and Waterrock Knob (Milepost 451) are especially popular.
LAKE LURE
Popular Fall leaf color viewing destinations near Kings Mountain – Image by Microsoft Copilot AI MOUNT MITCHELL STATE PARK • Address: 2388 State Hwy 128, Burnsville, NC 28714 • Distance from Kings Mountain: ~125 miles (2 hours 30 minutes) • At 6,684 feet, Mount Mitchell is the highest peak east of the Mississippi. It was battered by Helene’s winds, which reached over 100 mph, but the park has reopened key trails and overlooks. Visitors should expect some areas of tree loss, but the sweeping views are still unmatched. • Peak color here arrives early to mid-October, making it one of the first places in the state to glow with autumn hues. GRANDFATHER MOUNTAIN • Address: 2050 Blowing Rock Hwy, Linville, NC 28646 • Distance from Kings Mountain: ~ 95 miles (2 hours) • Grandfather Mountain, famous for its Mile High Swinging Bridge, offers panoramic views of the High Country. While Helene caused some blowdowns in the surrounding Pisgah National
Forest, the park itself has recovered well. • Expect peak color mid-October, with maples and birches lighting up the ridges. CHIMNEY ROCK STATE PARK & LAKE LURE • Address: 431 Main St, Chimney Rock, NC 28720 • Distance from Kings Mountain: ~65 miles (1 hour 20 minutes) • Chimney Rock was among the hardest hit communities during Helene, with flooding and landslides devastating businesses and trails3. While recovery continues, the park has reopened its main elevator and hiking routes. Visitors should be prepared for limited access in some areas. • Peak color here usually arrives from late October into early November, making it an excellent choice for those who miss the higher-elevation show.

• Distance from Kings Mountain: ~140 miles (2 hours 40 minutes) • Located northeast of Winston-Salem, Hanging Rock lies just within the 150-mile radius. Its sandstone cliffs and hardwood forests offer sweeping views of the Piedmont. Because it sits at a lower elevation than the Blue Ridge, peak color arrives from late October to early November. LEAF-PEEPING TIPS FOR 2025 • Timing is Everything • Higher elevations (Mount Mitchell, Grandfather Mountain) peak in early to mid-October. • Mid-elevations (Asheville, DuPont, Chimney Rock) peak in late October. • Lower elevations (Hanging Rock, Lake Lure) hold color into early November.
• Check Road Conditions • Hurricane Helene left lasting infrastructure damage. Certain sections of the Blue Ridge Parkway and Great Smoky Mountains National Park remain closed. Always check the National Park Service or NCDOT websites before traveling. • Beat the Crowds • Arrive early in the morning to park at popular overlooks. Weekdays are quieter than weekends. • Pack Smart • Bring layers—mountain weather can swing from 70°F in the afternoon to 40°F in the evening. • Carry water, snacks, and a paper map in case of limited cell service. • Leave No Trace • Stay on marked trails, re-
spect closures, and carry out all trash. Recovery from Helene is ongoing, and fragile areas need protection. • The Bigger Picture While Hurricane Helene stripped leaves and toppled trees across 822,000 acres of North Carolina forestland, experts say the state’s fall color season remains one of the longest and most diverse in the nation. “Colors start like a wave at the very highest elevation and every week you can watch that color move downslope,” said Dr. Neufeld. For residents of Kings Mountain, the message is clear: despite last year’s devastation, the mountains are open, the colors are coming, and the tradition of fall leaf-peeping stays alive.

Aiming Outdoorsmen Toward Christ
By Gary Miller As of this weekend, deer season is officially open in every state. I already feel like I’m behind because I have yet to go. I hope to change that tomorrow. I’ll hunt but not because I have located a good buck, but because I just need to sit with my thoughts in a tree stand – surrounded by those things that are trustworthy and bring a sense of certainty GARY MILLER to me. Don’t get me wrong, my head will be on a swivel, looking for a rack of antlers moving through the woods. But I am more so looking forward to what’s in the background than I am the subject matter. And the smell. For some reason I have been looking forward to the smell. My mind wonders at the smell. I have shared many times that while we have a description and some characteristics of what heaven might look like; there is no indication in the scriptures of what heaven might smell like. I know, however, it will not come from constructed walls and concrete walkways, but most likely from something as simple as dirt. Yes, maybe dirt. After all that is the smell of home. We know that animals locate their own by smell. Whether it’s deer or cows, they know their own by the unique smell. You love how your mother smelled. Even now, you love the smell of the one you love. You even love the blanket that you had as a child, and even the one you have now. Because it smelled/smells like home. Isn’t that strange? And neat? In fact, when that blanket smells funny, you wash it because it needs to smell like home. Why? There is comfort and certainty at home. There is rest at home. There is trust at home. As people made in the image of God, we have two homes. We have earthly parents and our man-made home, and then we have the place where God took dirt and made our earliest grandparents and our earliest home. I think that’s why I look forward to the smell of the woods. Right now, in all that is going in my life, I need home. I need a bed of dirt and a blanket of dew and God whispering through the trees, that everything is going to be alright. Maybe you too need to go home.

Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. Ephesians 4:31-32
