Blowing Rock is a beautiful mountain village on the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina, USA. Fall is a popular time of year to visit Blowing Rock.
Fall foliage in the Blue Ridge Mountains is one of the most beautiful fall displays in the world.
The Blue Ridge of North Carolina is one of the top places to see fall colors.
My trip to Blowing Rock – A beautiful mountain village
If I could I would divide the rest of the leisure days of my life in two ways.
On some days, I would like to roam freely in wide and open spaces in nature – sea, mountains, meadows, forests, deserts, and on some days I would rather confine myself in a cozy room and contemplate.
Recently during my trip to Blowing Rock, a beautiful mountain village on the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina, my days were exactly the way I would like them to be.
Roads that greeted my dreams
A piece of my dream!
I have always dreamed about walking on a road where autumn blooms and where sunshine sparkles autumn leaves.
This road greeted not just me but my dreams too.
Crispy orange leaves, crusty red leaves, and soft yellow leaves, blissful blue above and gorgeous green below made the reality even more vibrant than my dream.

One vibrant day!
Lakes that sparkled my thoughts
Blue sky, blue water and fall colors – aah what a sight!
The shores of the Price Lake in Blowing Rock was full of life.
Children were playing, some people were taking a leisurely stroll, some were relaxing by the lake, and lovers were lost in each other’s eyes.
A story of a picturesque afternoon! I felt a nip in the air, loved watching thousands of tiny waves on the lake, and thoughts strewn in my mind.
After a while and some miles of driving, I found myself contemplating by another lake.
The day was slowly retiring, the time was flowing silently and my thoughts were urging me to create some blue waves on paper. I took out my diary and scribbled.
A piece of peace!
Blowing Rock that gifted me a spectacular vista
I am a mountain lover. The more I experience them, the more I pine for them.
The sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains from the Blowing Rock were soothing. My daughter too loved the serenity and the peaceful surrounding.
I stood still and savored the perfection of the stillness afar.

Father and daughter were enjoying the vista!
Sitting atop the Blowing Rock with stunning views of the valley afar was a beautiful experience!
I loved walking on the bridge amidst the greenery. While walking I saw the sun peeping through the trees hinting me to look up.
I looked skyward between the leaves, yellow and green and loved the golden glow.
A perpetual story of autumn when leaves turn and we feel a nip in the air!
Greenery, valley, blue sky and golden sunshine – idyllic setting!
Where I stayed in Blowing Rock
The peaceful Meadowbrook Inn was perfect for comfort and some contemplation.
I distinctly remember the morning when I made a cup of coffee and enjoyed the powdery mist burning off in the sun. I sipped into the coffee and watched as the world passed by!
Book your stay at Meadowbrook Inn – I highly recommend this hotel.

A cup of coffee with a view!
After the morning coffee, I went for breakfast and enjoyed the delicious food.
On my way to the breakfast hall!
I enjoyed reading by the duck pond and spent some time contemplating and reflecting.
Imagination – that’s the name I selected for this place. One can read, contemplate or just imagine by the beautiful duck pond.
A story of a beautiful morning!
Thank you Meadowbrook Inn for the comfort of the cozy room and the luxury to contemplate.
One needs to stay here to experience. Book your stay at Meadowbrook Inn.
An ideal place for cozy comfort!
