One of the nice things about driving south to
Roanoke, Virginia (USA), is getting off the highway and onto the Blue Ridge
Parkway. I could wax eloquent, blather on and take lots of
poetic license describing this beautiful drive, but since I’m a thoughtful and charitable
type of person, I will not waste your time and will let my photos speak for
themselves.
It became apparent why they are called the "Blue" Ridge Mountains. |
Standing tall on top of the world. |

I took a motorcycle trip in your area in 1999 and fell in love with those mountains. Gorgeous blue!!
i love riding on the parkway! when i see scenes like the 2nd to the last photo, i too know why they are called the blue ridge mtns! we've only been here since 2008 and i'm still just in awe of the beauty here!
I never tire of those blue ridges... Lovely.
wow...beautiful pictures barbara. i love it! i closed my eyes for a few seconds imagining myself in picture number 2 and 3. amazing!
Wonderful captures - I especially like the 2nd shot as well as the one that clearly illustrates why they are called the Blue Ridge Mountains. Sometimes I forget just how beautiful the mountains are that surround me - these pictures are a quick reminder.
Yes, a picture is worth a thousand words...and now I want to hop in a convertible and head for the Blue Ridge Mountains! Beautiful pictures!!!
Picture two and four are amazing. Thank you very much for this much needed escape. Please have you all a good Friday.
Beautiful captures of the Blue Ridge Mountains. I also love the second and fourth photos. Cool shadow shot. Thanks for the visit, have a great weekend!
the first thing that came to my mind when I saw your title was the song by Laurel and Hardy!!! Lonesome Pine...sorry!!! I am still singing it....in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia....on the trail of the lonesome Pine...la, la, la ,la....
in the pale moonshine our hearts entwined where she carved her name and I carved mine...la, la, la....
Lol!
