I work as a Teacher for the Patrick County School System at a wonderful small community school located at Meadows of Dan in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I love my drive to work and use the time to prepare and decompress so that I am focused for work and home.
On this drive I often see various forms of wildlife and because the drive requires me to go from the foothills up the mountain, I see amazing scenery. Everyday feels like an adventure.
This morning it was very foggy here in the foothills. As I traveled to the foot of the mountain and began to start climbing up, I noticed the higher I climbed the fog was lifting. When I arrived at the top I had to stop and take a couple of pictures. The lowlands were completely blanketed with fog and a distant mountain range was barely peeking out. It was incredible and just a another reminder of how "small" I really am.
The pictures I took with my phone do not do the sight justice. The light was not great because They were taken at dawn. Hope you can get an idea of just a sample of the treats I get to see on my daily drive.
