Hiking, day 51: Roanoke, VA

Quick hike around the neighborhood.

Hiking, day 50: Valhalla Vineyards

My parents live near a winery in Cave Springs, VA, so I made the 2.4 mile hike up to the top of the mountain today for a wine tasting. Snapped a few urbex photos along the way, too.

Hiking, day 49: Chestnut Ridge

I'm back in Virginia to see family, so I'm exploring some local trails in the nearby mountains in Roanoke.

Hiking, day 48: Hall Ranch

I didn't accept any work calls this week since I got pinged for jury duty, so I'm trying to enjoy the nice weather on my days off!

Last Morning in Billings, MT

The sun finally came out on my last morning in Billings, MT. I caught a quick photo of the mountains in the distance from the hotel shuttle to the airport:

The airport still had a fair amount of snow on the ground.

Snack on my flight home.  You don't see these everyday!

A Cold Day in Billings, MT

It was a pretty full day of work, and the temperature never exceeded 19°. Needless to say, I didn't venture out this evening. But, I did capture a pretty cool panorama from my hotel room.

Hiking, day 47: Billings, MT

Work sent me to Billings MT for a few days, and I managed to get a good trek around the downtown area after I got into town.

Leaving Denver.

Flying over Wyoming and Montana.

We were one of the last flights to get into Billings. Visibility was only 100', and it was hard to differentiate between the sky and the snow on the ground.

A quick pic over the city, coming from the airport.

No trip is complete without a stop at a local brewery or two.

A few shots of downtown Billings.

More brews. I have to say I was really impressed with the selections I sampled - lots of quality beers coming out of this place.

My hotel in the snow.
