Originally, I planned on going to Deal&#8217;s Gap, then I changed my mind and decided on the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Beautiful area.<\/p>\n<p>Couple of pictures (I know, they suck, I took it with my camera phone, get over it)<br \/>\nBridge at the &#8216;bottom&#8217; of the gorge<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wildbluesky.com\/images\/Picture055_26Jun04.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nUhh&#8230; a butterfly.  \ud83d\ude00  There were tons of them around.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wildbluesky.com\/images\/Picture056_26Jun04.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Somewhere on 41 &#8211; a state park.

Pictures don&#8217;t really do it justice anyway.  So 16 hours and 630 miles later, I was back home.  Tired.  Slept for 12 hours, then made 4 nice jumps on Sunday.  Good times.  Did a 7-8 mile cross-country, ate a snickers and drank a gatorade under canopy.  Good times (see ya up there next time Pete)<\/p>\n<p>Erk is still trying to get me to hit the nylon crack.
