Another section of the Blue Ridge Parkway today. We drove north up I-77 to Virginia and got off at Exit 8, Fancy Gap, VA. We turned south back toward NC passing the closed and gated Blue Ridge Music Center, Cumberland Nob, Fox Hunters Paradise to Hwy 21 where the Parkway was closed and we were detoured north on Hwy 21 then west on Hwy 18 which we followed all the way back to County Road 1002 and Stone Mountain. Just like every day we have enjoyed on the Parkway, this one was another treat and we spotted 5 wild turkeys, to boot.
We still have not really seen Stone Mountain from here in the park but we did see it from about 50 miles away when we were on the Parkway three or four days ago. Sure would like to see it before I leave.
