Hi,
Sorry if this post is in the wrong section, not sure quite where it would best fit...
As part of my forthcoming visit, after a train from NYP to WAS, spending a few days in Washington, I will be renting a car.
I fancy a drive along either the Skyline Drive Shenandoah National park, or the Blue Ridge Parkway, or both.
I would like to see something of coal mining areas too.
Anyone know if there is much difference between the two drives as to scenic grandure, and any tips on any interesting towns to break the journey around the halfway point on the Blue Ridge parkway?
I expect this part of the trip to be early September.
Any thoughts, hints, feedback most appreciated.
Ed
