I've really got to fix my cookie!

There is a lovely state park in Southwestern VA. named Grayson Highlands S.P. I had the privilegdge of backpacking through there years ago on my little Appalachian Trail jaunt. It's very near Mt. Rogers which is over a mile above sea level. I was there when the wild Rhodies were in bloom. I remember walking down part of the Trail and the Rhodies were blooming all in a cascade down the mountain above me. It was lovely. There is nothing like a Rhododendron tent to lift your spirits.
