Well, I was on vacation again last week. This time I stayed in Massanutten, Virginia, located in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. For those of you have been keeping up with the weather, yes, I was in New England during hurricane Sandy! Didn't know what the weather would be when I made the reservations last June, but went anyway. I got there the day before and left afterwards. Actually, since I was in the western part of Virginia, far away from the coast, the storm wasn't as bad as what you saw on the news: lots of rain and wind, but not destructive. I spent a couple of days of quality time in my (extremely nice) timeshare unit reading and watching HBO.
I made up for my days of rest by traveling around a lot for the next 3 days. I took many, many photos and I tried to narrow down a selection to share with you all. This is the best I could do :)
There's a range of photos, but a lot of them involve the main reason I went to Shenandoah - the beautiful fall colors. Oh, and history too. Enjoy!
Just a reminder - click on a photo to see a larger version.
