October 20- October 26, 2007
Certain areas in the High Country are showing peak fall foliage!! Take a drive on the Parkway or some of our other beautiful highways. It is a great time to try out some of our favorite Fall Drives. Areas at and around 3000 feet still have a bit of green, but have lots of beautiful fall color to exhibit as well. As you can see, there was plenty of blue sky to complement the warm seasonal hues this past weekend. Mid-week is turning out to be quite foggy...but in many cases, it adds to the beauty of fall.
