A few weeks ago, Marcia and I spent a couple of days in Virginia at the
Applewood Inn . Our main goal was to go llama trekking, but the beautiful scenery and the gracious hospitality of owners Chris and Linda Best were actually the highlight of the trip. I've convinced Dan that he and I should go just for a quiet weekend (I might hike with the llamas again though).

Here's what my friend Marcia said about the Inn
"Lexington
VA is a beautiful mountain town, home to Washington and Lee U. and
various historical attractions. The Applewood Inn is nestled among a
scenic natural wonderland, almost surreally beautiful, amplified by
redbuds at their delicious peak,
tenderly cultivated gardens. It's about 4 hours from Raleigh; I'd
recommend a 2-day stay, if possible, to enjoy lunch and dinner meals in
Lexington. Take kids/grandkids and friendly pets along. This was a truly
unforgettable birthday celebration thanks to long-time friend Pat
Palmer. I'm so glad she decided to put llama trekking on her bucket list"
