Coastal Dash 2012 Travelogue – Part 3

I’m finally getting around to posting pictures of my roadtrip from last summer. (Here are Part 1 and Part 2)

On the way from New Jersey to Kentucky I stopped in the D.C. area to meet some friends I used to work with, and then the next day my wife and I met up with Feral Genius Jennifer Abel, who’d just recently moved there.

Then we headed south to Front Royal, Virginia, which anchors the northern end of the most famous scenic route through Shenandoah National Park: Skyline Drive.

I took 129 photos, so there should be plenty of good stuff. Let’s see…hazy view of rolling hills, hazy view of rolling hills, hazy view of rolling hills, winding road, hazy view of rolling hills, hazy view of rolling hills, interesting tree, hazy view of valley, hazy view of rolling hills…

Actually, some of that haze wasn’t just your run-of-the-mill haze. When we entered the park, the ranger informed us that there was a small wildfire in one section. Protip: You get better landscape photos if you take them when the landscape isn’t on fire.

Update: Part 4 is up.
