Do you like to take day trips? We almost always go to the mountains for our day trips, but we haven't gotten to do that in quite a while. This is our favorite time of the year to go to the mountains and drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Technically, the Blue Ridge Parkway is a National Park, so I wonder if it will be blocked off with barricades? Hmmm -- sure hope not.
All the pictures in this post are from fall of 2011. We have several local wineries near us in North Carolina that we like to visit, but Chateau Morrisette is actually in Virginia. It's further for us to drive, but we enjoy spending an afternoon there in the fall if we have a free day. It's right off the Blue Ridge Parkway in a little community called Meadows of Dan.
