We made it to the Blue Ridge Parkway by early afternoon. We spent hours admiring the October colors and the gorgeous overlooks. The pictures below will give you a tiny taste of what awaits you on the Blue Ridge Parkway, but you must actually drive it to feel the full effect. Imagine driving along the road with these colorful vistas immediately to your left and to your right as you ride along the ridge of the Blue Ridge Mountains at elevations up to 6000 feet!
We arrived at Hawg Wild BBQ in Brevard and enjoyed a fine plate of ribs with Larry and Susan.
