We’re not traveling as much in our fifth wheel anymore so I thought it would be fun to relive some of our most memorable days from previous RV trips.
Flash back to twelve years ago, October 3, 2007. We were camping in Cherokee, North Carolina, our home base for visiting the Great Smokey Mountain National Park and the southern end of the Blue Ridge Parkway. It was foggy and drizzling for most of our stay but we managed to get in some sightseeing and scenic drives while we were there.
We started the day with a three mile hike along the Oconaluftee River inside Great Smokey Mountains National Park.


Next up was a scenic drive starting at the southern end of the Blue Ridge Parkway. The farther north we got, the thicker the fog. After a while it drizzling. I was able to get a few photos before before the weather got too bad.



It was a wonderful fall getaway with camping in Cherokee, visiting the national park, and taking drives on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
It is great reminiscing with you of your adventures. These memories are what we’ll hold too. I know we reflect on ours with fond joy.

Amen to this. We remember well the ole days of 35mm and waiting for the prints to return.

In all the times I traveled from NH to Florida, I never visited the Blue Ridge Parkway. Hopefully now that we have more time, we’ll be able to stay at a campground and explore to our hearts content.

It’s beautiful all year but really nice in fall and spring. Lots of campgrounds just off the parkway for easy day trips.

Great shots including the farmstead, but the beavers and their ability to chew through wood always amaze me. 🙂
