_Day 11 - 25 June - 225 Miles
Blue Ridge Parkway
_The Road
Riding the Parkway is every bit as enjoyable as had been anticipated! 469 miles of mountain vistas and early American history. The Parks After brief stops at Linville Falls and the Blue Ridge Music Center, we took a lunch break at Mabry Mill and spent quite some time wandering the grounds. Lodging A yoga mat is sufficient for me, but the steel rods in his back finally convinced Thom that he could find someplace on Shelley for an air mattress and pump! A Walmart in Roanoke provided those and fixings for a campfire cookout. There must have been a car show nearby as we were treated to watching several classics go by as we sat at a filling station sipping coffee. |
