Earlier this year, I included the following statement in one of my posts: “I do know that if I won the lottery (assuming I ever played the lottery), there is only one home in Bent Tree for which I would pay $900,000 or more.”
Well, this is the one I was talking about. Even though I’m usually not a lottery player, when I saw this home hit the market a few days ago, and because of my earlier post, I tried my luck with the lottery. I didn’t win, so my favorite house in Bent Tree is still on the market.

The picture below is from 1998. The building on Cove Road, which housed a General Store at the time, was said to have been the first settler’s home built in the area during the early 1800’s Gold Rush. The property is now the site of the Dollar General.

I’m at the beach, and have been enjoying beautiful sunrises and a couple of rainbows. Then, yesterday evening, I looked at the Bent Tree NextDoor site and saw the most amazing photographs of double rainbows and glowing landscapes taken yesterday in Bent Tree. So, now I’m homesick…

Bent Tree’s Public Safety Director will be adding “Pickens County Board of Education member (Post 5)” to his duties starting in January. Click here for a related Pickens Progress article from back in May.
“As the USA gets ready to vote in our own election next week, I hope everyone back home exercises their precious right to vote. And that whether the Republicans or the Democrats win, that we all remember that we have far more as Americans that unites us than divides us. “United we stand, divided we fall.” God Bless America.”

The photo above shows a black bear in Bent Tree in 1998. The beautiful photo below shows a black bear in Bent Tree in 2018 (once again, thanks to the resident BT bear photographer). Who knows…the two bears may share the same family tree.
Don’t forget the L&W program on bears this morning.
