Really pretty area though, and the nicest folks! Looking forward to visiting Virginia again, perhaps when the Blue Ridge Parkway is fully open (parts closed right now).
Glad you had a good trip... just remember on your next visit that Blue Ridge Parkway is part of the NPS and carry is a no go for now....
Next time you're in Lexington drop by
Southern Inn. They had good food and handled open carry very well. I think I was one of the first people there that didn't follow a sugestion that it may be illegal and return the gun to the vehicle. After a quick explanation on VA law while continuing to be served, the person that addressed me disappeared to verify the info I provided. Then he came back and wished us a pleasant meal.
I recommend them to everyone heading that way! That way when I return, it will not be such a shock to see a .45 hanging from someone's hip.
