The Weekly Bleat: Sunrise on the Blue Ridge Parkway
A big thank you to Scott (Farmguy) for capturing this beautiful sunrise on his way to work this morning.

Tonya and your Scott (Farmguy) this is truly beautiful! I have been on the Blue Ridge Mountains along West Virginia. My best view was at Hawk’s Nest overlook. There were times we would stop to look while traveling, on our way south.
I love the song which John Denver mentions Blue Ridge Mountains and “mountain mama.” 🎶 When we visited friends of my Dad they lived in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. They lived on the edge of a tall hill in a rock house. I wonder if they were the foothills? 😊 They gave us pots of red bud saplings to take back to Ohio. So pretty when they were in bloom covering throughout the area of hills and valleys. Thanks for inspiration!
