Linville Falls and Linn Cove Viaduct - October 26, 2017


 Thursday, October 26

This year I wanted to go to the Blue Ridge Mountains during Fall.  The first stop on this little mountain getaway was to Linville Falls on the Blue Ridge Parkway.  I had never before been there.

 After our hike to the falls, we stopped by the Linville Falls Visitor Center run by the NPS for a cancellation stamp.





Our destination was Blowing Rock and Boone, so our next parkway stop was the Linn Cove Viaduct.


An overlook before we got to the viaduct

We took the trail that goes under a part of the viaduct.
 









It was a little cold!

Back on the parkway.




Another overlook - BEAUTIFUL!!

On our way to Boone, we passed the Julian Price Memorial Park.




Our hotel was in Boone, so we spent the rest of the evening at The Original Mast General Store.



And ate a delicious supper at Stick Boy Bread Co. Kitchen


I had Sicilian Chicken soup

J. had Kale and Chickpea Soup
