Blue Ridge Memories
Personal memory by Trevor
1995 • Blue Ridge, GA 30513, USA
Ever since I was born, which was in 1995, my parents have taken me and my siblings to the Blue Ridge Mountains. We usually stayed around the same area, just different cabins. As I got older I realized area of land slowly loose its trees over the years. Just recently this year the whole area has no trees left, as they have been all cut down for whatever reason. What use to be a beautiful piece of land is now barren land.
