Amazed

For all the places He allowed me to travel in the past two years, some of the most incredible things I've seen have been in my own backyard. I still can't believe He allows me to live in a place of such beauty.

This weekend I explored some of the sights on and off the Blue Ridge Parkway. Amazed at His creation:

Sunlight bursting through blue skies.

Our reward at the end of a hike. The top of this old
 fire tower gave incredible 360 views. 

You know you live in the mountains when swimming and
ice skating are listed on the same sign.

Minutes from my house. 

Lush and green views on a hike.

Parks and trails off the Parkway.
