Chapter 63 Returning to the Captain’s place of birth.

After enjoying the North Carolina Smokey Mountains, we decided to head North to Bedford, Virginia.  The trip took us back down the mountains and over another set of mountain ridges

This ride was about 324 miles...

There we enjoyed a great visit from our friends Brenda, Janice and her hubby Darryl.  

We stayed only 2 evenings there, but drank in the spectacular scenery while we could...

...one of the twin Peaks of Otter in the distant horizon

...Bedford is one of the most beautiful stops we make...

Of course, no visit to the area would be complete without a visit to the Captain’s favorite gourmet food establishment...

...the infamous Texas Inn, purveyors of heartburn since...forever ?
