Shenandoah National Park, Virginia

 Shenandoah National Park, Virginia

Oct 21-22 hubby and I enjoyed a short getaway to Shenandoah Nat'l Park staying for the night in Harrisonburg Virginia. These are some images from our most recent visit to Shenandoah National Park, we wanted to see the fall colors along the Skyline Drive. 

The Limberlost trail is a favorite of mine, the fall colors were looking beautiful.

I believe these two pretties are Pearl Crescent butterflies.

A view from an overlook. 

You can take a horse back ride from the Skyland Resort Stables.

The White-tailed Deer are seen off the Skyline Drive and along the trails.

The Dark-eyed Junco can be seen in the park year round. 

I hope you enjoy the Autumn colors and photos.

Thanks for visiting! Take care, have a great day!
