 Luray Virginia and the Skyline Drive


This is what we hoped for

But that is not what we actually got. Actually, the Fall foliage was quite nice, and we caught it near the peak. However, it was a grey day and my photos failed to capture what we actually saw. We drove much of the Skyline Drive during our stay, and on our subsequent trip south. Here is a typical appearance of our travels and hikes (from the web site).


A trip to Luray, Virginia is incomplete without a visit to Luray Caverns. Luray Caverns is a calcite-limestone cave that has been 400 million years in the making, discovered by Euro-Americans in 1878, but was known to Native Americans earlier. Today, it is open to the public, well lit with walkways, hardly making it a speleological endeavor. Nevertheless, it is awesome and well worth a visit.


We stayed two nights at a Bed and Breakfast, the Piney Hill B&B which I recommend.

Onward! Next stop is Charlottesville, Virginia.
