View from the Top!


Here's another gorgeous view of the Overlook at the top of the trail at Craggy Gardens, along the Blue Ridge Parkway. Such a gorgeous place to take a drive. It's only about an hour from Asheville. When you reach the top of the Overlook, it's a 360 degree view. So I kept turning and shooting from all the sides. I'll post more images of the various views later. Hope you're week is going well. Why do we take a vacation? We only come back to all the work waiting for us. UGH! ENJOY!

  1. Awesome shot! Looks like it would be the cover of a movie advertisement. Id definitely revisit this place when the fall colors come around. All the best.

  7. We went there too during this latest trip. We also went to Mt. Mitchell. I took some photos of the fog/mist up there if you look at yesterday's blog.

    Hugs,
