Lookin' South. Thank you. It one of my favorite places in the world.

10. Oh, yes - beautiful area

My son lives in a little town in Greene County - we drove a good portion of the Blue Ridge Parkway when I last visited him. Just gorgeous. I love western Virginia. :hi:

14. It's just a tiny weekend place but the view is unbelievable. Every

way you look is just like a picture post card.:hi:

the Blue Ridge Parkway. Thats the Northern Piedmont of NC with Pilot Mountain stikin' up there.

7. Lovely....

I'm insanely jealous of your back porch view! I've got a new acoustic guitar, and I'd love to be sitting there with a cocktail strumming placidly....

[Road Scholar]

13. It's perfect for that. And you would not believe the night sky on

a clear night. You can see every falling star and every twinkle of every star.

[hippywife]

17. Okay!

You just made me insanely jealous! :P

:hi: I love the view of Pilot Mountain! That's not the angle I usually see...so it's really cool! Great pic!

[Road Scholar]

16. Thank you. Sometimes I get up at daybreak and grind some

fresh coffee and enjoy my first cup listening to the forrest below in the valley wake up. It really is unbelievable.

18. Those little boxes on the horizon is the Winston Salem Skyline

53 miles away.

23. Pilot Mountain!

I have family in Greensboro and Winston. We travel the back roads from Charleston to get there and pass Pilot Mountain every trip.

:hi:

It's my favorite part of the world.

:)

25. My favorite place too,lg. I can see almost the whole northern

piedmont of NC. Because if the sunlight and clouds, it changes almost hourly. I had just finished building a deck back there just for the view.
