Stop(s) in the Mountains (April 11 and 15, 2021)

Made two overnights in the area of the Blue Ride Parkway over two nights- April 11 and April 15 with a trip to the beach in between. Took the photo at left at Pilot Mountain State Park and the two below in Mt. Airy, NC. Fun town and the inspiration for the Andy Griffith Show of the 1960s. Very friendly people there. It was fun to see some of the sights and to explore it with my wife who had never been there. Of special note, on the visit on the 15th we ate at a Mt. Airy restaurant called The Copper Pot (photo below). Amazingly good food and a lot for a little money. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the area.
