Today, once again, the weather was gorgeous. Every day this week it's been in the high-50's to 60 degrees and sunny. At night it goes down near freezing. It's supposed to cool off a little this week so thought we should take advantage of it. We decided to go for a walk so we went to the Folk Art Center on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The Folk Art Center is a place where tourists pay big bucks to purchase local craft items. It's only a few miles from our house and we went there because we heard there are hiking trails there. The Mountains-to-Sea Trail passes right by the Art Center. It is a trail that - guess what? Goes from the mountains to the sea following the Parkway. We walked for about an hour. We couldn't believe it was December and we were outside without a coat. After our walk we drove up the Parkway a bit then got off on a side road and drove around the mountains in an area we hadn't been yet.
