UFO IMAGE As my earlier post indicates, I was out for the day with the express purpose of taking fall foliage photos with my digital camera.
I live in Central VA and happened to be in Crozet VA taking my first photos when I decided to take a few shots from my car seat.

I pity the poor fool who has never seen Charleston South Carolina. This has to be one of the most beautiful, yet peaceful cities I have ever seen. I have seen photographs of Charleston, but visiting the city and meeting the people is simply a terrific experience. If you ever plan on traveling to the southeast of the USA, you owe it to yourself to come here.

Some of you may be familiar with my friend Woody. Woody and I met in Fancy Gap nearly two months ago, early on in my travels. Well, about a week ago Woody emailed me about a Volkswagen event happening in Charlotte NC. The event was being sponsored by GMP Performance of Charlotte NC. Since I was staying in Robbinsville NC (a few short hours away from Charlotte), it seemed the logical thing to do. Plus, it sounded fun. It would be my first Volkswagen event, and hopefully the first of many to come. Problem was that Woody let me know a good 5 days in advance, and that meant I had to stay in Robbinsville for almost a week. So, I stayed. I didn’t mind, really, because Robbinsville, NC is such a fantastic little town with lovely people. Granted, there is not a lot to do in Robbinsville, NC, but I was able to relax and that is worth the price of gold if you ask me. Yet, another fabulous reason to live in a small town!

I have discovered several wonderful places to get tremendous service and great food at a reasonable price. One is an Indian restaraunt called Milan, and another is an internet coffee cafe called The Daily Grind. Both are in Lynchburg, Virginia. :satisfied:

I snapped a few shots of the sunrise in Avon, NC, just before I left to head back to VA. Beach due to a death in the family. The thumbnails are clickable and expand to their original sizes. These images were taken only a few minutes apart, but what is so beautiful besides the photos themselves is the subtle differences between them as each passing moment fades into the next. I hope these do not take too long to load.

Well, as I left Tarboro behind I decided I needed to head East, postponing The Tail of the Dragon a few days, weeks or maybe months.
I headed to Cape Hatteras and Avon, but not before stopping off in Manteo, at the behest of my good buddy Thomas Woody. He said he knew of a Bed and Breakfast in a town called Manteo, near Nags Head. As it turns out, the lil buggers parents own the darned thing. So, I decided to stop over for a few nights……

The Outer Banks was an interesting place. I loved going there for so many reasons. It happened to be my moms favorite place to go, or at least one of her favorite places to go. Being there helped me to connect to mom in some nice ways. At times it was painful, but mostly it was a warm experience as memories of my mom came flooding back too me.
