Mountain Ride

The Fuzz has been back home for a few days now.

So with the promise of good weather he decided to have a ride up into the mountains.

He headed out on some back roads and eventually caught NC 226 up to Marion.

From there he rode NC 80, The Devil's Whip

(sometimes referred to as The Devil's Staircase*)

up to the Parkway.

He had his new camera with him and decided to see what it could do.

A shot of the mountains.

You can see why it's called the Blue Ridge.

It's hard to tell where the mountains stop and the sky begins.

You may notice what looks like a building in the distance about in the center of the left half of the above pix.

Here's a better look.

And who can resist stopping to admire the little things as well.

*The Fuzz would not want to pull a trailer on this road!
