I can breathe in a small town
– John Mellencamp (Small Town)–
Welcome to my home in Hickory, North Carolina! Nestled between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Piedmont regions, Hickory is a sister city of Altenburg, Germany.
Union Square (downtown) reflected on the windows of the old train depot.
My World Tuesday is a new meme brought to you by the Skywatch Friday team. For a virtual tour of cities around the world, please visit That’s My World!
I will look forward to seeing more of your world.
I’m going to like this meme because it will help me “get to know better” people that already are interesting to me. You brought nicely representavite pictures to your post.
Great and very creative! Glad you’re game! Looks like this meme is going to be a whole lot of fun!
Cheers, Klaus

Good shots of Hickory. I’ve been there many times. Fun visiting a fellow North Carolinian.
Lovely shot of your hometown. Have a nice day.

Your part of the Carolinas is beautiful!

I need to look up exactly where Hickory is to see if I’ve been through there.
Beautiful photos. Thanks for sharing your little corner of the world.
I agree, small towns are good to live in or in our case live outside. There is a sense of community and old fashioned neighbourliness. Look forward to seeing more.
Nice pics TFS, Mike.
I like your photos especially the one with the reflection. Thanks for your visit to Rotterdam!

Wow! back in another life I almost moved to Hickory, NC. My x-husband almost got a job there, but they decided Huntsville, AL, was a better place for him than Hickory. Too bad, it looks like an interesting place. Lovely pictures. The fall color in those leaves is magnificent!
Beautiful photos from your corner of the world! I’m looking forward to see more:)
Couldn’t agree more with the quote and love the reflection shot
Perfect view of a beautiful small town. Thanks for sharing and look forward to seeing more.

Charming pictures, a true taste of real America. Thank you for sharing.
I went to Australia (via My World Tuesday) and found your world. I grew up in the NC piedmont and have been to Hickory a few times many years ago. It is a pleasure to see some of the area away from I77, I85 and I95! Great photos, especially your colorful header!
Great My World Tuesday photo! Love the perspective! Also, have been to Hickory! Great place! Take care!
