What Sparta, NC, is known for

Sparta is a small town in the mountains of North Carolina population 1,700. It’s known for being “miles away” from other cities in NC but also close enough to other towns when you need to get away for a short time. Sparta is located in the heart of Alleghany County, a county with nearly 11,155 residents. Named for Greek city of Sparta. It is very close to the border of the State of Virginia

Raleigh is 2 hr 56 min (174.2 mi) via I-40 West

Elevation of Sparta 2,927′

Raleigh is centrally located.  We can get to parts of our mountains or the coast in 2 to 3 hours.

Dearest Auntie HiC,

 It’s hard to believe it’s been 4 years since I decided to let Mom rescue me. Today, September 20th, was the first day of the best days of the rest of my 9 lives!!

I played “hard to get” for a couple weeks. 😹 Mom was patient & persistent until I finally gave up the Stray Cat life and became an inside kitty.

Best decision I ever made❣️😻

I love my home & family.

Mom says you have always been a great Kitty Auntie❣️
❤️ Kat

Hope you enjoy my stray cat video mom put a ton of my very first photos to some Cat-a-tastic Stray cat music.

Dearest Nephew Auntie sends you a ton of love and today.

You were such a brave and smart kitty to find your way to the most loving home in all of Georgia

Lovingly Auntie HiC

September 19, 2019

His office is the deep dark sea.
He travels in the shadows of night by the tower light.
Looking for treasures and trinkets while 
out of sight.
In the background you hear screeching from the
pirate's Parrot
 Cap'n my Cap'n
look starboard (right) and you will see a landlubber 
who is lost at sea. What an addlepate (fool) he be
out here on the open sea.  
Fair winds my friends
til we meet again.
