Blue Ridge Parkway views
Fall color in the North Carolina mountains is becoming apparent. At mid-elevations along the Blue Ridge Parkway, the color is spectacular. Higher up, it's still early; lower down, drought stress may diminish the usual clear yellows, defaulting to brown.
But yesterday, it was spectacular north of Devil's Courthouse and Graveyard Fields.
