Thursday morning on the mountain
Another late morning start to my coffee muses…
The Day is starting out the warmest we’ve felt yet. 60° right now but breezy still from last night. Mt Airy was warm, over eighty, but not too bad. It was a nice little town, we had a late lunch at the soda shop. Cheese burgers and fries at prices that had Sherry thinking the menu was a stage prop. I ordered and liked my very first egg cream.
Today we will hang closer to the cabin. No long trips up or down the Parkway. Lunch will be at the little restaurant in Valle Crucis, Over Yonder, where we have enjoyed meals before. The last time we ate there we sat out on the porch and watched deer feeding under the apple trees out back.
Breakfast is calling…
I’m glad you’re enjoying yourself. What are you missing here? Rain. And more rain. And oh, by the way — it’s raining again. Have fun!
Linda, the forecast for the rest of our stay is calling for rain tonight. More rain tomorrow, and Saturday… Oh, and did I mention we’ll probably have to pack in the rain. Up and down stairs with our luggage etc…
Sympathies — but at least you’ve got mountains, even if it’s raining!
