THE BLUE RIDGE PARKWAY- VIRGINIA
Dance as if no one were watching;
Sing as if no one were listening;
Live every day as if it were your last;
THE BLUE RIDGE PARKWAY
Dance as if no one were watching;
Sing as if no one were listening;
Live every day as if it were your last;
and pass on graciously with a smile on your face and no regrets.
The Blue Ridge Parkway. A two lane motor road that follows the very spine of the Blue Ridge Mountain range from Waynsboro, Virginia to it's end in Cherokee, North Carolina. 478 miles of scenic beauty. It is a splendid motor road offering natures best in the forms of wildlife, scenic wonder and is a test for the skills of any two wheeled adventurer. The road itself is an amazing accomplishment. Even more; it evokes a wonderment about the first peoples who traversed these inpenitrable, hostile mountains. The asphalt ribbon cuts through peaks and valleys, hill and dale. Those that came three centuries ago had no trace to follow; no destination point to steer for. They simply hacked out their fortune on the frontier bearing their children along the way.

DANCING ON WATER
This is what I do. This is my passion. I am allow'd to be me. Out there I can be what I am. I'm unencumbered by society.

THE LAKE AT NIGHT
Saturday was a busy day at work. There were lots of Harley people through the dealership and lots of mufflers to listen too and the weather was hot, with a capitol "H". I stayed to listen to the concert for awhile and to converse with a couple employee friends. But the day got to me. Needed relax time. So I got the Gheenoe and put it in Tellico Lake around 11:00 PM. Happy was handy so I took her along. Also, she is small and wouldn't take up much room. All I wanted to do was drive out in the middle of Tellico Lake and shut it down and just float. I did that. I awoke at 1:00AM and the boat was still in the same place. That is how calm the water gets. Just like a mirror. Happy slept like a log. She does what I do. Sweet little dog. The photography is limited though. I did have fun photographing some fish that came to the surface and collected at the glow of the green running lights from the boat. Interesting. But the calmness of that lake experience was amazing.
