Day 20: Friday, April 29, 2011

We decided to spend today at Breaks Interstate Park.  It is just too beautiful to pass up.  The park is sponsored by both Virginia and Kentucky.  We hiked the trails and went to several of the overlooks to view the 5 mile gorge that plunges to 1650 feet.  This area is called the “Grand Canyon of the South East” for good reason.  We also saw the coal train as it traveled through the tunnels loaded with tons of coal.

With all the rest days, I have had some time to work on the counted cross stitch piece.  Here is the progress to date.
