Banner Elk, NC – Day 38: A Viaduct, An Old Mountain & A Deep Gorge

 
Today we were out and about enjoying the best of western North Carolina. The three of us visited Linn Cove Viaduct, Grandfather Mountain, and Linville Gorge Wilderness. The title of the post, that last sentence, and the pictures below are in the reverse order of our visitation.

Tomorrow I head further east in North Carolina to visit one of Donna’s 1st cousins and a good friend who lives in Rockingham. It is about time; these last three days have worn me out. These mountain folk, David and then John & Carol, have fed me and have made me walk more than I’ve done in the previous month of the road trip. The only good thing is that I’ve been chauffeur-driven around.
