As you could tell from my last post we drove part of the Blue Ridge Parkway last week. We drove it during the week (the good part of having a husband who has his own consulting business and can schedule things himself) and while it Continue reading →

We are so fortunate that we live so close to the Blue Ridge Parkway. Named America’s Favorite Drive the Parkway is beautiful any time of the year. In the fall the Parkway is crowded with “peepers” many of whom stop in our lovely little town Continue reading →

Beth Ann Chiles/ North Carolina, Photography, Travel/ 28 Comments/ 455

Chris and I love where we live and one of the best things about our location is our close proximity to the Blue Ridge Parkway. It is often referred to as America’s favorite drive and understandably so.  469 miles of road that winds through Virginia Continue reading →
