I had a lovely time this weekend too. I spent literally hours
attempting to find access to higher elevations on the Blue Ridge
Parkway only to be frustrated by yet another park ranger looking out
for the public's best interest after 1'' of localized snowfall.
Apparently some folks don't get out much.  Mandatory vanagon content:
Hershey was ready for it. Instead we tore up some curves on Hwy 64
going past Culasaja gorge.  Hershey felt much better afterwards.
Grumpy owner will take days to recover.
