There are some advantages to getting up before dawn in order to get on the road early for a trip home. That is exactly what Betsy and I did when we left Skyland on the Skyline Drive in Virginia for our trip home after celebrating Betsy’s birthday.
Getting up while it is still dark is not my favorite thing to do (I did enough of that before I retired!). But getting up that early did provide some benefits, one of which was this view of a beautiful sunrise seen from Thorofare Mountain Overlook on Skyline Drive.
