parkway in his column, we were on
the last day of six that had been
spent exploring the vast Southern
a region of great nat
ural beauty and unlimited possi-
bilities for vacation enjoyment.
We had started at Fontana Village,
visited the Smokes and then for
four hurried and full days travelled
the parkway to its northern en-
trance at Rockfish Gap near the
cities of Waynesboro and Char
lottesville where it joins the Sky
line drive of Shenandoah.
Flame azaela and purple rhodo-
dendron were in magnificent
bloom and the mountains were
decked in the fresh green of
spring-time. To many, the bloom
of the great Towering shrubs is a
favorite season but an equal num-

tops by the promise of GOODNESS

Hint of Autumn - In August,
there is a first hint of autumn in
the air. The farm scene-and per-
haps the greatest surprise of all is
the crop which seemingly hangs
on a OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES a
neat pattern of ripened corn,
buckwheat and row crops. In
September goldenrod and asters
trim the meadows and set the
stage for the flaming color which
is autumn in the parkway coun-
try.
BY mid October, fall color is at
AitS magnificent best. The birch
and tulip trees are yellow. the sas-
safras orange, the sumac scarlet
the oak and hickory have leath-
cry sheen. Red maple, Color King
of the Southern Highlands" is
everywhere ablaze.

places with rhododendron, azalea,
white pine and other native Spe-
cies. Parking overlooks to the side
are convenient balconies.
Along the parkway, at intervals,
are recreation areas with picnic
grounds, comp grounds. trailer
sites and hiking trails which lead
to exhibits of unspoiled nature and
to spots of native folklore.

Highlands. the region of the Ap-
palachian Mountains south of the
Mason-Dixon line. These great
Eastern mountains are a broad
ribbon of many parallel ranges
connected by cross ranges and
tumbled mountains and hills.
From Shenandoah National Park,
for 355 miles, the parkway follows
the Blue Ridge Mountains, the
eastern rampant. which form the
water divide between the Atlantic
and the gulf; then it winds cross
country through the Blacks, the
Craggies, the Pisgahs and the
Balsams to the Great Smokes.

and deep, narrow coves
and valleys. Superb scenery and
a pleasant climate lure the vaca-
ton minded.

Shaped Lives-The character of
the Southern Highlands has di-
rectly shaped the history of it's
inhabitants, debating where the
Indian should live, and turning the
tides of white immigration be-
tween it's hills. The firstcomers
settled in the valleys and became
prosperous. Those arriving later
took up progressively more isolated
homesteads. They cut the trees
and allowed the rich topsoil to run
away and erosion to get a start
Thus was set in motion a process
which made the land less fertile
and the settlers ever poorer.

At mile-high heights, the Blue
Ridge parkway carries America S
motoring millions through a land
of forested mountains-exquisite
during the flower of spring, cool in
the green summer, colorful in the
red autumn. Nearly 470 miles long.
