The Blue Ridge

We drove from Lake Norman to Mario,NC, using all back roads. It was an easy drive. We are set up in the Buck Creek Campground and Driving Range. It's owned and operated by Dan. It's a great spot. We're backed up to the Buck Creek, a bubbling mountain stream. Instead of a pool, he has Swimming Holes in the creek. The site is on State Route 80, as windy a mountain road as we've been on. After setting up, we continued up 80 to it's intersection with the Blue Ridge Parkway. Unfortunately the section where 80 hits is under repairs and is not open, so back down we came. Lots of attractions in the area, so we'll be here at least until Monday.
