Off to Asheville, NC

Oct 19-20, 2010 - We headed out of Shenandoah Nat'l Park for Asheville, NC.  Late start so to stopped at Hungry Mother's State Park in SW VA.  Very nice park!  The next morning we went for what looked like a nice easy 5+ mile bike ride around the lake.  It was nice (most of the trail was lined with rhododendrons - will be nice in the spring) but some sections were very challenging:

After the bike ride, we headed for NC via the mountains of VA and TN.  Absolutely beautiful country to drive through.  Some of the mountains worked the truck a bit - stopped at the NC Welcome Ctr:

We landed at a small park right on the river in Asheville, NC - here for a week.  Headed to Biltmore tomorrow.  Check out the view out our rear window (ignore the ladder, bikes and camera flash):
more to come . . .
