Daytrippin'

Some places never grow old. Even though the New River is thought to be second only to the Nile as the oldest river in the world...even though we've been here many times...










I felt her name.

Maybe it was just being together.

Wow, gorgeous pictures! I'm an outdoor lover and drank in the view. I could smell earthy forest and hear the crunch of leaves underfoot. I did notice that you dressed far nicer for a hike in the woods than I ever have!

Thanks for sharing this treat of fall's glory.

Absolutely beautiful pictures. I am looking forward to my trip to Skyland Lodge in Shenandoah National Park the first week of November. Hopefully, there will still be color on the trees.

Blessings, andrea

My favorite pictures in the world are trails or roads that disappear into the unknown...where might they take me...the adventure of what I might find... beautiful.

What beautiful pictures!
The kids are so adorable. Looks like y'all are having a great time.
I get to go to Virginia with my sister to see my niece the last weekend in Oct. I can't wait for God to delight me with His beautiful creations.
Love you Laura!

Before I ever opened this blog and saw it on my dashboard...I reconized where the picture was taken...I have only been to New River once and we only had time to walk over to the first look over...I so wish I could go back...isn't the bridge day this Saturday? HUM...
