"The Kings Mountain Art Fair is the well worth the effort to visit. It's
been conducted beneath the redwoods since 1963 off Skyline Boulevard
high in the quiet hills of Woodside on the Labor Day weekend. Traffic
and parking can be a bit daunting, but the free fair can be a rewarding
experience. It's being held this weekend, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
(breakfast at 8 a.m.) Saturday through Monday at 13889 Skyline Blvd.
(six miles south of the Highway 92 intersection).
Proceeds benefit
the Kings Mountain Volunteer Fire Brigade, Kings Mountain Elementary
School and other worthy community entities." Read more.

The Kings Mountain Area is at a loss for the closure last year of The Bella Vista Restaurant and Lodge. I am full of Woe and Melancholy just thinking about it. Where else could you get breathtaking views and chocolate souffle, baked?
