A bit of the Blue Ridge Parkway

Well there has been some interesting weather here in Asheville: quite a bit of rain, lots of fog, clouds and morning dew, and some rain. All in all, the total sum of weather has been partly cloudy with chance of rain.

Anyway, we did have one nice morning (this past Saturday ... with friends Robin and Paul) and we were able to set out and get onto the Blue Ridge Parkway while the weather was fair. We focused on getting to Craggy Gardens near Mt. Mitchell. Mitchell is the highest peak east of the Mississippi at 6630Ft.  It's called Craggy Gardens because of the Rhododendrons there.
