On Sat Oct 20, 2007, Violet, Drake, and I drove to and then on Skyline Drive. Yes, its taken me more than a week to make a blog post about it.

Located within the Shenandoah National Park, Skyline Drive is a 105 mile scenic drive through the Blue Ridge Mountains in Northern Virginia. It's only about an hour away, and only cost like 15 bucks to get in (which is good for a week's worth of re-entry), and was a splendid way to spend an afternoon. The drive also features lodging, restaurants with a cabin feel, bed and breakfasts, camping, and stuff like that there. We just drove up and down Skyline drive though and stopped at one of the few gift shops in the middle. It was a great drive, we stopped at a dozen or so overlooks (out of the 75 or so they have) and took about 30 pictures. Drake slept pretty much the entire time. Violet loves scenic drives, and she loves Fall Colors, so this was a great trip for her.

And now, for some of the pics...
