Garden City finished..

Neat home.
The happy sign!


 
 







Tackled the last part of Yellow Mtn. Rd this eve. One car parked at Garden City Rec. center while the other parked at the Blue Ridge Parkway bridge near Morrision St. We started there and headed down Kepplewood and Fidelity roads. Never drove or walked on these roads before. Got back onto Yellow Mtn. and saw a happy sign! Continued to the wealthy area called Wellington. There are some very nice homes in this area and a very steep hill! I picked out three homes that really stood out to me as we were walking.



As we headed up the steep hill we came across a home that was under construction. On the way back we decided to head on in since the front doors were wide open, well...there wasnt any doors. Huge rooms and tons of space. Snapped a pic of John heading up one of the stairways.

John heading up.
Three floors of craziness. I believe only one room could suffice. I cant imagine the mortgage. Headed on out and back down Wellington. Not much going on as we discussed a few things. Finally got back onto Yellow Mtn. Rd and conquered Valley Pike Rd. Saw a mysterious man behind a tree in his yard on the way back. We both said our hellos and walked on. My favorite part of Yellow Mtn lies ahead of us. A creepy feel to the road with trees hanging over reminds me of a scene out of Dracula. All that was needed was a full moon and some fog. The picture doesnt do it justice. Up around the bend was a nice view of Roanoke Mtn.


Favorite street so far.

Nice view.



Coming around the bend we saw the beginning of Garden City. Just a little bit more and we have walked all the streets in this area. Saw only one deer today, no dogs or rabbits. Maybe two people and that was it. Not much going on today maybe it was the heat? Nah....Finally saw the Recreation center and my Jeep. Headed on home with sore feet and knees but Garden City was now completed!

See ya!
