My Backyard

Well not exactly my back yard but only a short 20 min drive. Decided to run up to the mountians and enjoy the sunset. This is at a small overlook at Reeds Gap, on the BlueRidge Parkway in central Va. Crapy cellphone pics but kinda "artsie" You city folk don't know what you are missing.

Couldn't you have gotten a pic of the sunrise without the car to ruin it.

Beautiful Rick!
I used to live close to the Parkway in NC, and miss the scenery.
My kids were fascinated that you could drive up into the clouds, and then back out of them.

How are you supposed to get a good view with those mountains in the way.

It must be hard to enjoy the view without being stuck in traffic.

Tabby, I would be more than happy to get you your requested pic, without the car in it. Lets see, sunrise is in the east, so I will need to drive another 100 miles, so that I am on the western side of the ridges, not to mention getting up at O-Dark-O-clock. just to get a pic, mabye It would be easier to flip the mountians over so that the sun changes it.s direction. I'll get right on that one for ya.

Actually all the pics without the car washed so badly (cell phone pics) they wern't worth saving let alone sharing.
