This is the best time of year at Riverbend. The air is cool and dry. There are fewer "biting insects" or snakes. The colors are spectacular.On Saturday November 12th I drove to RB before daylight with two goals, to look for hunters (there were none) and to enjoy a gorgeous day ( I was not disappointed). Each of our properties are botanical and wilderness treasure troves. I have recently heard of a scupernong-muscadine vine that is 12 inches in diameter at RB. This could not have survived to this age of several hundred years without protection. Most likely the protectors were the Tuscarora tribe that inhabited this area.
Apropos to the season, I encountered a large "tom" turkey on my expedition.
