Change History

I drove along there in 01 and it was mostly pea soup, to the point that what looked like an oncoming car was actually a much closer motorcycle with dual headlights. This time it was clear for maybe 3/4s of the combined roads, but again, when it was socked in the double yellow divider disappeared at about 50 feet. There was some road work stuff occurring on the BRP, but it was all a bunch of guys zipping around in pickup trucks, but ; nothing obstructive. Some of the two roads' pavement is in bad repair, so they might decide to fix it all up just when you're there. I was very fortunate in that when I first got on Skyline near Luray,* one catatonic driver was in front of me for about 10 miles, ignoring my light flashing as we approached scenic pullovers, but then I didn't have anyone in front of me for what, maybe 100 miles. When I stopped to take pictures, I'd leap out the car and do a LeMans start to get going.
* The Cavern is beautiful, and there's a non-descript-from-the-outside car collection next door that is simply astonishing: 1892 Benz, 1896 Peugeot, 1908 Delaunay, 1906 Cadillac, 1907 Buick, 1908 Sears, 1908 Baker Electric, 1914 Locomobile, 1910 Maxwell, 1911 Hupmobile, 1913 Stanley, 1932 Rolls-Royce Shooting Brake (woody no less!) 1931 Morgan 3-wheeler, 1927 Mercedes Benz, 1928 Packard, 1927 Bugatti, 1930 Cord, 1931 Pierce-Arrow, 1935 Hispano-Suiza, etc, etc.
