a postcard from Virginia...


Shenandoah National Park, Virginia


Almost heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.
Life is old there, older than the trees, younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze.
Country roads, take me home to the place I belong.
West Virginia, mountain momma, take me home, country roads.

I've been singing along with John Denver.

We are enjoying the journey...

    Now that song is stuck in my head. I'll think of you wending your way through the countryside all day! Beautiful.

    Lovely song, but you were in Virginia not West Virginia when you were singing it, perhaps?! That's okay, we like it and sing it in Virginia also!!! :-) You will be traveling a county next to mine when you travel the Blue Ridge Parkway through southwest Virginia.

    The Blue Ridge Parkway is one of my favorite drives. We have taken it numerous times. And you have such a beautiful time of year to enjoy it!
