    They are totally breathtakingly beautiful... We couldn't get enough of them last fall. We were there last October. We enjoyed the drive. It looked about like your photos with the changing of the leaves. Thanks for sharing your pictures. So gorgeous.
    Enjoy your week!

    Amazing...it's all I can say. I love these pictures - the sky is beautiful and the trees--everything is just awesome. I lived in Christiansburg about 6 years ago and we used to go for drives, especially in the fall to see the landscape. Thanks for sharing.

    Beautiful photos of majestic blue mountains. Reminds me of a story my Hubby tells of the first time he saw the grass in Kentucky. He was disappointed. He had heard that it was blue.
    Have a great week.
