It's time to wrap up my Postcards and Splash's Stories in order to get ready for our next big adventure on Thursday. Here are some parting snapshots from the 2018 Blue Ridge Rally. Thanks for dropping by to pick up your BRR Postcards and read Splash's Tall Tales. Splash will be back tomorrow with a Story about Goin' To The Dawgs. Before every Blue Ridge Rally (and every other trip Becky and I take), I do my research to see what's out there to see. The majority of my Blue Ridgers are traveling to an area unfamiliar to them and consequently, need a bit of guidance in the sight-seeing department. I consult a variety of sources to gather my information: Roadside America, Trip Advisor, Flavortown USA, Off The Beaten Path to mention a few. I figure there are others like me (and Becky) who like to explore and find fun things to do in the area surrounding the BRR. Something else I always do is to put all this information in pdf form to share with my Blue Ridgers. Despite five days of rain, we were out exploring just about every day! In addition to these sights, we found others . . . As always, I appreciate you dropping by to pick up your Postcard From The Road and letting me show you an up close and personal look at the 2018 Blue Ridge Rally.
When I am planning my Blue Ridge Rally, I don't set out to have a daily event involving food, but somehow it always happens.
