this afternoon we drove up to the blue ridge parkway and stopped at humpback rocks where an old mountain farmstead is located. we listened to a very animated appalachian storyteller share a tale about a panther stealing a newborn baby, then we had a picnic while watching a christian bluegrass band. dan and i exchanged many uneasy glances.
after deserting the band and checking out the old rustic buildings, we resumed our drive down the winding parkway, occasionally stopping to take in amazing views of the shenandoah valley. on our way home we found ourselves stopping at the "walton's mountain country store," a place near the home of, yes, you guessed it, john boy.
man, do i need a digital camera or what! there is so much crazy country kitsch around here.
