Surreal Magic, Blue Ridge Parkway

We took a spontaneous ride through the low-hanging clouds, up to Mt. Mitchell. We had the parkway all to ourselves. The road has been closed for a year and a half and recently reopened.

What a stunning ride to the highest peak of the Appalachian Mountains--peaking at 6,684 ft (2,037 m).

Just breathtaking, with a spirit of surreal magic. It humbles you to see all the magnificent beauty. We got back just before dusk, with the Asheville sky awash with glorious colors.
