 I joined Dave and Kathy for a day of sightseeing in Northern Virginia...



Kathy & I with the Luray Hawksbill Greenway sign.




The bridge support is

The Greenway's neighbors
added murals to the path.






in the restored Train Station.





Besides information on local attractions, there's a scale model of Northern Virginia Train Stations inside.





We eat lunch at Royal Spice
