Today I am sharing about my experience on the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina.
Before this trip my knowledge of the Blue Ridge Mountains came from John Denver.
The opening verse:
Almost Heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze...
The Blue Ridge Parkway is 469 miles and is goes from Shenandoah National Park in the north to the Smoky Mountains National Park in the south.
Here is a map of the Blue Ridge Parkway and then the Blue Ridge Mountains, the parkway follows the mountains.
We drove a very small section just outside of Asheville, North Carolina.
First stop: Haw Creek Valley

Second Stop: Tanbark Ridge Overlook
Third Stop: Bull Creek Valley
This was probably my favorite stop. So Beautiful!

Fog
As an Arizona girl any weather besides sun is exciting!
We pulled into a parking lot by a park and took a selfie and spooky trees.

This is a picture of the parking lot.
Then we were on the road again.
