I drove back from Wytheville to Yorktown on Thursday. When I got to Lexington I needed gas and
decided that instead of just taking the highway I wanted to take a less speedy
road (as also recommended by a friend, who told me to enjoy my travails through
this beautiful state instead of just trying to get to point B from point A as
fast as possible). So I took Highway 11
to 340 all the way to Waynesboro. The
picture of the wood cabin was taken in McCormick, an interesting little village
that seems to be undergoing a lot of renovations. It has a lot of character and I hope it is maintained
and becomes an interesting place to explore.
The scenery picture was taken just outside Draper, one of
the stops on the New River Trail. I
previously took pictures there. Being
someone who grew up on an island in the middle of sea; who now live in Yorktown,
I often miss the horizon or at least the ability to see further than the
trees. I remember living in Durham (NC)
30 years ago and I felt claustrophobic. I like being able to see far, probably one of
those reasons I love to be on the water and sail.
In all it is fun to see these little treasures while spending
so much time on the road.
