Linn Cove Viaduct















We had four beautiful days, seen the highlight of trip so far, the Linn cove viaduct on thursday, then Friday it turned bad with rain and fog. The blue ridge parkway is no place to be when it gets foggy. We had stayed in a campground in Julian Price Memorial park. Left the parkway and drove down to I40. From there we went over to Gatlinburg , TN. We are staying at a campground in Pigeon Forge for 3 days. It is very nice but expensive at $42 per night compared with the national park campgrounds at $8 per night, we have the national park passport card that gets us half price at park campgrounds. Here is some of the many pics we took.

Skyline drive

Had a good time driving the skyline drive. Finally found a good place with a strong signal to send these pictures. We are overlooking the Roanoke VA valley at present. The one pic that you may not understand is called stoney man.
