Left Brain took a nice long bike ride up and down the hills. This is scary for me because the roads are narrow and windy with a 45 mph speed limit. But he came back just fine.
I went into Waynesville to check out the pickleball at the Old Armory Rec Center. Today was scheduled for beginners, but it had been so long since I'd held a paddle in my hands I just couldn't stay away. I introduced myself to the coach and she had me floating around assisting and giving encouragement. As the day went on more and more left, so I got in some playing time and left sweaty and happy.
After returning to the RV we both cleaned up and headed out for some lunch and then a drive around the area, with a stretch of the Blue Ridge Parkway.
What a glorious drive, winding up through the mountains with several overlooks to stop and admire the autumn colors poking out in the hills.
Hopefully the weather will remain rain-free and we can continue to explore this little corner of G-ds country.
Long Live the Queen of the Mountain
We did a short drive on the Parkway, also. The colors are definitely starting.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you got in some Pickle Ball. I know how much you enjoy that! Maybe George & Gracie can learn Tent Ball, too. Our George had intensive practice today.
ReplyDeleteAs always, your photos are breathtaking.
I drove through here a few times, and it really is beautiful. I never realized just how famous and popular pickleball was. I'm glad you were able to find it nearby. Have a wonderful day, hugs, Edna B.
