"IH Quilt Barn"

Spotted this barn on a Saturday afternoon ride down Moccasin Valley Rd. in Russell County, Va. Don't see many of the quilt blocks on barns in Virginia but they are catching on.

"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!
