Today we hiked from troutville to the Blue Ridge parkway. Construction was blocking the southern entrance to this popular scenic highway so we had a bit of roadway at the top for ourselves as most tourists want to drive thru.
It was fun to realize that I had bike thus exact roadway back in 1982 on the transamerica bike ride and remembering that back in 82 I saw the Appalachian trail signs and even hiked down the trail a few hundred feet.
