Nice pics! I've bungee jumped off that bridge and that area is where my dad's side of the family is from. They close it down one day every year in October. It's mostly crazy base jumpers. Big deal around those parts as people come from all over the world to base jump. I go kayaking around there on a regular basis as well.
Suki drove by just a little north of where I am, so that's what it looks like around me. The pic with her hubby takin a pic is from Afton mountian where my grand parents lived. Charlottesville, Va is very close to that if you are somewhat familiar with the area. Beautiful here, and she is right, there is a certain energy here in the Appalachains. One of the oldest mountain ranges in the world.
