Rockbridge Winery

More grape vines to run thru. The winer had a puppy that we could play with. What fun. While Mom sampled wine, we ran and ran.


One last winery before we make it home. We are running out of space in the car for us and the wine. Pretty soon, Mom is going to have to make a choice, us or wine. We Wonder??????


Shennendoah Winery


Of Course, we had to hit another winery before we made it home.

Fall Colors of the Shennendoah




Humpback Bridge




Humpback Bridge - one of 6 covered bridges still left in Virginia. This is pretty neat. The story behind covered bridges is that they were a great place for "courting" It was a good place to stop horse and buggy for a snuggle on a cool evening.

If you are quiet, one can hear the klippty klop of horse going across the bridge.

Virginia

We are getting closer to home. We are back in the home state of Virginia. It does feel good.

New River




Overlooking the New River in Southern West Virginia. The New River is the second oldest river in the world next to the Nile. Was named the New River for when explores first saw it, the river was not mentioned on any map so it was "NEW" to them. Beautiful overlook.

West Virginia

We are in West Virginia heading for home. We have had loads of fun but will be good to be back to our own bed in Virginia.
