When we took Driver's Ed in high school we drove over Clinch mountain....then it was a two laned highway with one switchback after another....I was glad it was not me doing the driving. Now it is a four lanes. Such a big change to how it was. I bet the truck drivers really appreciate it...
I also wish I had views from back then...I don't know how the big rigs made it over. Or maybe they took a different route.
what stunning views,

You grew up in a beautiful area Rose. Now I want to take a road trip there.
ReplyDeletei have never driven those switchbacks, but i did ride them with mother and daddy. beautiful sight
ReplyDeleteLove it! We just love that area and plan extra time when we pass through so that we can stop and take as many pictures as we want to take. Your images are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWonderful scenery. Last photo is just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful country. I like the shape of the lake in that first one. Lovely fall trees in all of them.
ReplyDeleteFantastic views! I really like that first shot. I would have been terrified to have to take driver's ed on a mountain road! Would have been good for me probably, but I was so short and the cars so big, I had a lot of trouble learning to drive.
ReplyDeleteWowsa! What beautiful views!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't want to drive the roads with only two lanes. The four lanes must be much safer. The views are gorgeous!
