Holiday Rambling

I wish every weekend was a three day weekend! I used Friday to get all my usual around-the-house chores done, so I could have Saturday free to do what I wanted to do. So Saturday morning I got up early and drove up on the Blue Ridge Parkway to try to catch a sunrise. Sunrise photo opportunities are hit and miss on the BRP because you never know when you're going to be socked in with clouds. It could be clear down in town, but an impenetrable fog up higher. The clouds cooperated, and I got some nice shots of the layers of ridges fading into the distance (Click on photo to enlarge). It was a nice way to start my 4th of July holiday.

I got some other nice scenics and wildflower photos that I will be posting during the coming week. I've been working such long ours at my job lately, and it was nice to have some "me and my camera" time once again.
