SUMMARY:Evening Photography Hike at Pearson Falls
DESCRIPTION:As the sun drops low and the day-trippers clear out\, the glen changes character entirely. This is your window into that shift: three uninterrupted hours on property\, just you (and a small handful of fellow photographers\, never a crowd) with no guide\, no itinerary\, and no one rushing you along. \nEvening here has its own kind of magic. The light turns soft and amber\, slanting low through the canopy and catching the mist off the falls in a way that midday sun never quite manages. The crowds are gone\, the air cools\, and the only sound is water moving over stone. Shadows stretch long across the trail\, the moss glows a deeper green\, and the waterfalls themselves seem to shimmer\n.\nThis access is built for photographers who know what they’re after and just need the space and time to chase it. Wander at your own pace. Chase the light as it moves. Set up and wait for the shot without anyone stepping into your frame. \nBring your gear\, bring your patience\, and let the glen do the rest.\nWhat’s included\n3 hours of on-property access during evening hours\nSemi-private admission – limited to a small number of photographers\, no general public\nFully unguided\, explore freely\, move at your own pace\, no fixed route\nFull access to the glen trails and waterfalls throughout your window \nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:"Something's Afoot" Play by Tryon Little Theatre
DESCRIPTION:September 17-20 & September 24-27. Something’s Afoot play by Tryon Little Theatre\, Tryon\, NC. ♦ \nThis musical spoof takes a satirical jab at the Agatha Christie “whodunit?” murder mysteries. Ten people are stranded in an isolated English country estate during a raging thunderstorm and one by one they are killed in mysterious (and hilarious) ways. Miss Tweed\, an elderly amateur detective\, works to unmask the murderer\, as matters are complicated by rising floodwaters\, power failures\, and suspicious behaviors. \nTickets are $30/adult and $15/student available online at: https://tltinfo.org/ \nThursday-Saturday 7:30pm & Sunday at 3pm. \n
