Blowing Rock, North Carolina

I  finally have a chance to go over some of the images from my trip to Nashville and Blowing Rock North Carolina…

Which ended up being an awesome birthday celebration for my best friend. !! We all flew in separately to Nashville to meet up there and then drove up to Blowing Rock North Carolina.

Kuddos to Beth V….She was the hero with all her driving !!!

Couldn’t imagine pulling this one off. And the doggie has no helmet either !!

The weather was perfect. We spent one day walking around down town…Some of the other canines I saw out enjoying the day as well.

Some toured the town in luxury.

Everyone loved the Labrodoodles and had to stop to check them out. They really loved the attention to say the least.

This little sweet heart was a rescue dog…I can’t remember her name. So thrilled to be with people, just darling.

One word of caution, if you ever do go to the Blue Ridge Mountains, driving around those mountains is nauseating.

The twisting and turning roads, riding in a back seat…oh my.

The mountains are beautiful. I felt like I was looking at a water color painting of the ridges. Breathtaking for sure.

A favorite past time for the locals…sit and watch the tourist go by.

Don’t plan on coming here if your not into hiking. LOADS of it all over the place. Hikers paradise !

That’s pretty much all there is to do.

Some of the trail openings reminded me of a scene from a movie.
