I hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend! Since LV doesn't have the day off today we decided to do our fun little get away yesterday. We don't have very far to Sideling Hill and thought it might be just the thing since the views there are breath taking. There are picnic tables along the edge where you can look out over the mountains while you enjoy your lunch. They closed their exhibit center but a few trails are still open so we got to enjoy those. Another great thing about this place is that it isn't packed with tourists like most attractions which makes it much more enjoyable to us.
We enjoyed our short excursion and hope to do it again someday.
What are you doing for the holiday?
We will be getting the rest of our garden in today. It is supposed to be near 100 where we live, so before the day is through, we will probably take a dip in the creek!
ReplyDeleteWe will spend time together as a family with our oldest daughter who is home from North Carolina for a few days. I may even get to stamp a few cards for upcoming birthdays!!!!
ReplyDeleteWe always were amazed when we drove through Sideling Hill on the way to my grandparents. Thanks for sharing the photos.
ReplyDeletethat some big hill there; I hope you have a great day, we are not doing anything today, but going to a Revival in a near by town tonight, so be blessed and be a blessing. Hugs Barbara
ReplyDeleteWe used to drive through there lots of times on our way home to West Virginia. It's been years since we've been there. I remember going in the museum but I don't think we ever walked up to see the view. I don't remember their being a bridge when we were there but Wow that has been well over 15 years since we've traveled that way. My how times passes!
ReplyDeleteHave a Great Day!

It's not a holiday weekend over here in South Africa. We have had so many Public Holidays recently that now, we must work or study!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful view...
ReplyDeleteThose are nifty pictures of your holiday excursion. We like off-the-hard-beaten-path places to visit, too.
ReplyDeleteToday we watered all the plants in both vegetable gardens and my flowers. It's going to be a literal scorcher here in the South with a high of ninety four degrees along with enough humidity to wash a load of clothes. ;) Other than that we may take in a further into the country drive and a takeout meal.
I'm just trying to make it through another day, that's about it.

What a beautiful area! We are grilling steaks later, that about sums it up. I also am working on another blog where I am going to feature my greeting cards I have for sale.
ReplyDeleteHappy Memorial Day!
until next time... nel
It looks like a wonderful way to spend the day!
ReplyDeleteWe had a family cookout at my son's house yesterday. The storms held off till later in the afternoon so it was a wonderful day. Today, we visited are parents' cemeteries and now for some yardwork. No rain today. Yippee!
Sounds like a wonderful outing!
ReplyDeleteNot doing anything exciting today, personally.
I've been at that very place many times and have the same pictures!! : )
ReplyDeleteId love to buy an RV one day and travel America, very nice images as well. Please feel free to stop over to read old order Mennonite Jeans post on my blog. This week she talks about the farmers market that she goes to sell her items, and talks a little about the Amish. Richard

ReplyDeleteSaw the link for your post on Amy's blog and had to click it! We live less than 20 minutes from here!!! Where do you live? Feel free to stop by for a glass of lemonade or a walk in the woods next time you are in the area! Great photos! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI had to work on Memorial Day, but at least I will get paid time-and-a-half. I love excursions like the one you took with your family. It looks like a beautiful area.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a very lovely place to visit!
