Is the Blue Ridge parkway a National Park? If so, it might be closed due to the govt shutdown.
Yeah it’s a national something. But I read that it wasn’t to be shut down other than the restrooms and the visiting centers and there wasn’t going to be any trash collection. However if part of the road had issues, nobody would be there to deal with it. There was a recent storm with lots of trees down, so this could have been the case.
I’m actually pretty tired of going on it since there are a lot of slowpokes. And we’ve been on it dozens of times. So it was nice to go a different way
