"Whitetop Mountain"
From the top of Whitetop Mountain in Grayson County, Va. The highest navigable road in Virginia ends right here! Can't get no higher than this in Virginia without walkin'. Jeep likes me again!

"On Roan"
A little taste of what I saw on my way up Roan Mountain today!
..... and once I got there .....
This, is what I beheld .....
Just the awesome reality will take your breath away, but today, coupled with 40-50+ mph wind gusts it really did take your breath away!

"Lap of Luxury"
After outliving his owner, special arrangements were made for this Parrot to live out his remaining years in the "Lap of Luxury"! He now resides in the front office of the American Eagle Foundation in Pigeon Forge, Tn. His cage is visible in the background but as you can see, he is not confined to it. We were told these birds can live to be over 100 years old under the right conditions, which I'm sure he is going to find here in his new home.

"Abandoned In Virginia"
I remember driving by this one as a child and just thinking what an awesome house on the hill it was. Still standing and still pretty much intact but it is vacant and has been for some time. Being built of stone, it will probably still be standing here long after I am gone it it is not demolished. On Lee Hwy. in Washington County, Va. between Abingdon and Bristol.

"Day Tripper"
What better way to start off the New Year than a day trip to the most visited national park in the National Park System. Nice ride to the Smokies today. Not the best day weather wise, but any day here is something special. It's gonna be a good year!
