Spring Comes Early to the Mountains
Well, folks, I don't think any of us expected this! It's early February and the 10-day forecast shows above average temperatures for the next 10 days. No snow, no below freezing temps, and highs in the 50's & to mid-60's! After record-breaking cold in December and January, we are now well on own way to seeing the Dogwoods and Daffodils in full-bloom soon. Now is the perfect time to book your Spring mountain vacation. In fact, check-out this wonderful 3bdrm/2bath cabin with amazing views and easy access to the Blue Ridge Parkway: www.houfy.com/3450. There's never any booking fees on Houfy and you can speak to the owners directly PRIOR to booking!
