Waynesville, NC - 1st week on November

Another beautiful week weatherwise, more like Summer than Fall.  We take one last walk on Junaluska Lake

A few colorful holdouts

The Roses are still doing well

Walking you can see some of the damage that was done during the flood.  Pillars and fencing fell down

A break for Tucson, who is well camouflaged

More storm damage


Still having dental work and going on 4 months of protein shakes.  An appt this week to get time frame for finishing up.  Pained this for my Dentist 

Another ride to see if the road to Balsam Mountain is open.  Maggie Valley is decorated for Fall



Road is still closed, but a young lady volunteers to take a picture of us.

I can see for miles and miles

Saw one line Elk along the way


Our friends Patti and Dale are back from Florida to close their RV up.  We still have some beautiful weather so we take an ride up 276 to the Blue Ridge Parkway because they've opened another section.

The Gateway to most of our rides


Francis Mill again



More road damage

this used to be a Fish Hatchery


This beautiful home has its front yard filled with rocks and boulders right to the door.





We reach the Parkway and it's a beautiful ride








We get a great view of Looking Glass Mountain



When the rock surface gets wet or covered in ice it looks like a mirror


We got as far as Graveyard Fields and hoped to return via 215, just a mile down the road but the entrance was closed so we turned around

A great ride and probably our last.  We will be winterizing the 5th wheel and moving into our Class C.  We are taking a trip to the coast to Cedar Point Campground, North of Wilmington NC for a week before returning here for hopefully the final phase of my dental work!
