SkyWatch Friday



A couple of weeks ago, on a nice warm-ish Saturday, we decided to get outside and do a little hiking around. We ended up at Explore Park off the Blue Ridge Parkway. Despite these dramatic clouds, it really was nice weather. We brought a cooler filled with some water and sandwiches and sat right here in this spot and had a nice picnic!
