Default Blue Ridge Parkway NC cruise in T/A

Went for a mountain ride today with two friends riding along with me. Drove up to Virginia and then drove down the blue ridge parkway to Mount Mitchell. It started out sunny then it poured, sunny, foggy, poured went from 90 degrees to 65 degrees at the top of the mountain that felt real nice and then some people where up there wearing winter coats lol and they were freezin what would they do if they lived up north where i am from. 340 miles of driving. Tried to take the best pictures I could with the weather conditions we had. Enjoy.
