Spending the day in the village of Blowing Rock, North Carolina, is always relaxing and pleasant for us.
We visit a few shops then share the black bean nachos at the Six Pence Pub. Next, we visit a few more shops.
There are parks around ponds and lots of beautiful gardens to admire.
I wore a rayon layering tank under a long blue cardigan duster from Chico's. Yes, rayon wrinkles, but like linen, it is a very comfortable fabric to wear in warm weather. The necklace is old from Chico's.
The white ankle jeans are from J.Jill. I love wearing these pants! They are so comfortable, and the fit is perfect.
The shoes are by Calvin Klein. Yes, I wore them all day shopping. I am more comfortable in heels than flats.
The bride and her attendants arrive at her wedding being held at the gazebo by one of the lakes.
We enjoy the many things while visiting the Blowing Rock area, driving through the beautiful surrounding neighborhoods to admire the landscape and fabulous homes.
Along the way, there are several waterfalls and panoramic views to enjoy.
Later in the day, we enjoy visiting Bistro Roca for a glass of wine and one of their fabulous wood-fired oven veggie pizzas.
Stop or sprout wings and fly!
Views along the Blue Ridge Parkway never cease to take my breath away.
