Foggy, wet and cold on Skyline Dr.
We opened the curtains at the hotel this morning, and found rain. Not what we were expecting. It stopped raining around 10 am and we headed for Skyline Drive.
We made it to the parkway without rain. Things changed real quick. We stayed in pea soup fog for most of the ride. We got a soaking for a 100 plus miles. It is the wettest $15 we ever spent. When we had 35 miles left to travel on the Skyline Drive, we were thinking about getting off the parkway. The weather cleared. We decided to continue on. It wasn't long we were wetter than ever, then the last 10 miles were clear and enjoyable.
After we got off the parkway, we took a tour of Front Royal, Virginia. We contemplated if we should go north to Gettysburg or east to Virginia Beach. After looking at the rainy forecast for the next couple of days, we headed south.
We have completed our bucket list of riding the beginning of the Blue Ridge Parkway to the end of Skyline Drive. ChaChing!!!!!
It cleared up some, finally
