Update about blogCa

I-40 picked up the old Rte. 66 somewhere along the way, maybe Little Rock, maybe Oklahoma City. But it is the 100th anniversary of Rte 66 so I enjoyed thinking about my parents driving on part Of it in. St. Louis at least. Here we continued from Santa Rosita to Gallup NM, then left both highways to go north to CO.

Looking far and close


 Helen knew what these are...they are blooming along highways all the way to Florida. Yellow Ragwort.

 The overlook just before reaching Pisgah Inn on the Blue Ridge Parkway, heading north from Brevard NC.
I guess this is Funnel Top...what a strange name!
 We drove through incredible spring greens.  They were vivid, but slowly we got above them.
This lookout is about 2000 feet higher than where we live in Black Mountain!

 My friend said she'd like to have a view from that tower...a bit more than I'm interested in.

I love vistas...the farthest I can see is always where my eyes try to focus. But I also want to be standing on firm ground.

Sweet flowers near the entrances from the parking lot of the Pisgah Inn.  Helen always knows what they are! Bluets.

Thanks for commenting! I tried moderating, thinking that would be a quicker way to check on comments, but actually it takes more time. So go ahead and talk amongst yourselves, and I'll check in when I can!!
