We decided to go to the craft show being held in Lake Lure, after we stopped and had lunch then went on to Sliding Rock.
This is the covered bridge that leads to the bottomless pools in Lake Lure, but it is now closed because it is privately owned and the owner decided he didn't want to keep it up and let people enjoy it.
We stopped along the river that runs through Chimney Rock and had sandwhiches for lunch.
