I took this picture because it reminds me of the time my parents brought me to Boone for a short vacation. We visited Mystery Hill and it is something I think about when describing this region. It is a picture that I feel many people from the region have in their minds from a previous visit or an outsider may feel for a similar place from their hometown. I chose to only take a picture of the sign because it is more direct than a picture of the Mystery Hill building. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248621532657226/b699632a-6894-448a-ad49-55da0c67e4c3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Mystery Hill You can spend time studying the exhibits at Mystery Hill in Blowing Rock.
