Jim always has a week off in July for a "changeover" at his plant.....we were planning on going to Paris to visit w/ Cindy but we couldn't find any tickets under $1400 each so we decided we will try next year. Since we had a week off we drove Jim's mother to visit her daughter in Roanoke, Va. We had a very relaxing and scenic drive to Virginia. We were very surprise at how much Roanoke offered...it's a cute city in beautiful Blue Ridge MT. Jim and I went in a cavern tour, shopped at the oldest farmer's market in US, visit the famous STAR of Roanoke, drive the scenic Blue Ridge Pkwy, and had a wonderful visit w/ Chris and Chuck.
