On The Rode Again

Well it has been plenty of time since our last update and Lori and I have taken two trips since Ireland. Three weeks ago we hit up Vegas for 5 days (sorry Finn we left out Flat Stanley), anyway weather was a bit chilly but much better than 120 degrees. Highlights of Vegas: Big Elvis @ Bill's Gambling Hall, Drew Carey and company @MGM, free dinner buffet at Wynn, and hitting a four of a kind at the golden nugget playing let it ride! We Stayed 3 days in the new tower Palazzo at the Venetian and 1 nights downtown at the Golden Nugget. Lori prefers the strip but I am a new fan of downtown. Enough of Vegas lets get onto Skyline Drive Virginia.

The first picture you see is of a small reflection pond at skyline caverns roughly 220 ft below ground, it was pretty awesome for only being two inches deep. It is not exactly tourist season down here and as a result the tour we took of the caverns was just Lori and I (pretty cool too). Tomorrow we plan to hit a few more caves/caverns and continue on skyline line drive. The second picture above is of the guardians of skyline drive which we ran into immediately upon entering the Shenandoah Nat. Park via Skyline drive. Skyline Drive is roughly 100 miles (35mph speed limit) traversing through Shenandoah Nat. Park, we only drove the first third today and will hit as much as possible tomorrow. I'll report back in tomorrow.

Good job with the new post! I set the cavern photo as my desktop picture.
