Our first successful day of wandering. On Carlynn's suggestion, we headed out Rte. 60 from Richmond to the Natural Bridge. Once we hit the Blue Ridge Mountains, we were treated to a true mountain drive. A narrow 2 lane road with winding switchbacks at a speed of 25 - 30 mph. Followed a logging truck at 10 mph for a while - that was a little too slow. Nice drive. Natural Bridge is like a jumbo Arch Rock on Mackinac Island. It was cold & we were about the only ones there. Also there was a native Monacan Indian village reproduction with an interesting native interpreter and a walk to a waterfall. All in a days work.............................then we broke our plan already & hopped on the Interstate (I-81) since it was right there - hey, we have a lot of ground to cover! Staying in Whytheville VA tonight - its in the corner of VA, TN & NC. A view of the Blue Ridges out our window at the Red Roof Inn. We'll probably see a lot of Red Roofs - we discovered pets stay free, so no more sneaking Larry in to a room. Heading for Memphis tomorrow.
