This was without a doubt the best day of the trip, driving the Blue Ridge Parkway from Linn Cove Viaduct to Craggy Gardens and back to Asheville was awe inspiring. The weather cooperated for most of the day as the rains didn't come until just a few miles North of Craggy Gardens. Temperatures ranged form a high of 77 degrees to a low of 57 degrees at top of Mount Mitchell. Gasoline purchased was at $3.229/gallon, a bit higher than the $2.999/gallon in Virginia.
I would have liked to post more of the photos that I took today, but would not want to bore my readers. When one has the scenery, it is very easy to take good photos.
One of the sites I am headed for today is Chimney Rock State Park.
Hope you enjoyed photos!

Nice! I see why Mike and Shannon love to hike in the area. Tell them we got the 'save the date' today.
