If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead

I love the parkway. I used to fly into Roanoke, and if I was not in a hurry I'd take the parkway over to Lynchburg. It was a little longer, about 20 minutes, but oh what fun. During the week there is no traffic at all up there and you could really toss a rented Nissan Maxima around through the curves. |

I used to have to spend a week every year with my first set of in-laws in Arlington, VA. I got up early every AM and headed out for the Parkway with camera in hand. Long days trips but well worth it. jf |

The photos to which i refer were taken in the late 1970's. I have no idea where they are, if they still are. I am sure I have the negatives somewhere...a former life. jf |
