to the Blue Ridge Parkway we go

We headed up to the Blue Ridge Parkway to see what might be around at
elevation.

On the way up we passed many bikers. 276 wouldn't be an easy hill climb.
Someday when the hip recovers....

Photo taken from the lunch spot. I forget the name of this rock. Oh well.
I had a turkey sandwich. It really hit the spot.

The temperature is much cooler here at almost 5000'. It is also pretty
windy. At Davidson River some trees and flowers are starting to bloom
while up here there are no signs of spring.
