Rhododendrons Galore

We are finally getting into rhododendron season, so drove to 2 spots where there should be many: Craggy Gardens and Roan Mountain. both were gorgeous, but because of the rains and cool spring we were a couple of weeks early...still a great show.

Yesterday on the way home we stopped at a "rhododendron festival" but found just booths with fair type food, and people dressed up in Confederate fair...shooting old rifles in the air...Sophie was not pleased.

The real bit of unreality was the raffle. The local Republican Women's group was raffling off a large scary automatic rifle...Wow it feels like a different country!
