Awhile back the U.S. Mint produced quarters with one face for each state of the USA. For Nebraska, our quarter featured
Chimney Rock.
This past summer, my family decided to visit this National Historic Site. I had not been to this monument before and it is in NEBRASKA - my home state. Well, I really felt bad about this, as in 2007, I visited Chimney Rock State Park in North Carolina. It was quite different from Nebraska's Chimney Rock.
How many of us from Nebraska realize that there is more than one Chimney Rock.... maybe this is a good Jeopardy question?
Below is the view from atop Chimney Rock (North Carolina) looking out in one direction.
And these are some of the winding stairs you have to climb up to get to the top of Chimney Rock.
If you decide to visit this area, you will get to experience the Smoky Mountains also. :)
Some much better photos than my own are
