Tonight we are in Asheville, NC with one more day to drive before the beach.
Zipping down the highway in Saffire compressed the weeks and brought us into springtime.
As we left Kentucky the scenery, while beautiful, was very monochromatic...all browns and greys and silver. Spring's finger had yet to touch the landscape.
The first sign was the water seeping from the towering rock cliffs which line the road. The sun's warming rays were melting the ice from deep within. Spring green became the accent color and a burst of golden yellow from a field of daffodil announced that here spring had arrived!
Spring's arrival also brought gusty winds for our drive through the mountains. We paralled the river for miles, and Luanne saw three boats running a river wild with sping melt.
One more day of mountain driving, then tomorrow afternoon I face the demon bridge, maybe closing my eyes and driving like a bat out of hell as my friend Nancy suggested...
Princess, Maybe fold the drivers side mirror in just for the bridge crossing. Let me know how you make out. I'd love to go back to Hunting, but after your experience, am hesitant to subject the poor battered Lady to the demon bridge.
ReplyDeleteGive my regards to Wilson and Tucker. Ahh, just go for the bridge--tell it "Hi" for me. Have a great time. You guys should take a ride over to Charleston--the streets of Charleston and the battery are cool places to walk the pups.
