Sounds like Shrek went camping like me and Vet4jdc, I know FASTZR-1 did the Florida Mickey Mouse thing.

We camped up at Misty Mountain in Crozet, VA. Hiking the first day, Mountains are tough on these old flatlander legs:dance:

Second day did a wine tour and Jefferson's Monticello Estate pretty impressive:thumbs:

Wrapped up the weekend at King Family Winery and Ranch watching polo and drinking wine.:beer::flag:

All in all, it was a great last two weeks of vacation that started with the quick road trip to NY with good friends. I don't want to go back to work now. :toetap:

My dumb ass had the digital camera with me, but didn't snap a single shot. Those were all crappy cell phone shots.




This guy was right across the isle from us and kept Calli on her toes all weekend. He's Husky/Wolf mix named Diesel. COOL dog!

Classic car show at Cheeseburger in Paradise. We had over 100 cars, which is a pretty good turnout for the middle of a 3-day weekend.

Thanks. That was the first one he caught and the other three were a little smaller but he doesn't care as long as there is something on the hook.

For the 4th I made a quick appearance at a family cookout, then went and sang at the ocean front with Symphonicity (the Virginia Beach Symphony), and the Virginia Beach Chorale for the City's Fourth of July Celebration.

The opening of the fireworks were "choreographed" to our last two numbers, the "1812 Overture", then "Stars & Stripes Forever"
