LaRue,

I have driven on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Kentucky several times...often going to the Louisville National Sport Trac meet...:grin:



For beautiful scenery, the BRP is hard to beet. My only complaint was with the gas stations along the route. They seem to be all Mom & Pop owned, no brand name stations? I am used to seeing Shell, Exxon, Chevron, Valero, stations, etc. What I see on the BRP is brands I have never heard of...and I grew up in Ohio and traveled all over the US, but never heard of most of the stations they have along the BRP. My solution is to schedule a gas stop just before I get to Kentucky.



In the Louisville, KY area, you can find a lot of name brand gas along with a few odd stations, but at least you have a choice....BRP does not give you any choice when you need gas, and you don't know what your are getting. I'm sure it's OK gas, it's just I have been taught to avoid no-name, Mom & Pop gas stations since they don't sell as much gas, they are more likely to have stale gas or gas contaminated with water/condensation from the tank being half full for so long.

Oops, my error. You are correct...I was thinking of the Blue Grass Parkway. Does anyone have a "Dumb Ass" sign I can wear...:grin:
