RV Adventures – Roan Mountain Tennesee

Posted on Friday, June 19th, 2009

I am pleased to introduce our friends Anne-Marie and Al who have been traveling the USA via RV. These free-birds are willing to share the adventure here with us at Remarkable Wrinklies. So, why here? Because anyone who is willing to retire to an RV with their spouse and two cats… well those are some dang Remarkable Wrinklies! Please take some time to enjoy their story.

Our final fling in TN was to revisit Roan Mtn. to see the wild rhododendrons in bloom.

They were blooming, but we were a few days too early for the peak bloom. We backtracked down the mountain to Carver’s Gap where the AT crosses the pass. Oh my gosh, the pass is field for the most part and the scenery was breathtaking!

Usually, photos just don’t do justice to beautiful scenery; but, here I think words are inadequate.

Notice the natural specimen I caught sunning himself on a rock. 🙂

We have rolled up our awning, pulled in our slides, released our wheels and we’re on our way to Luray, VA near the Shenandoah Nat’l Park. Tulip is excited about another road trip!
