This weekend, we went on a short trip with friends and chose to drop by Natural Bridge on the way to our final destination (Douthat State Park near my hometown of Clifton Forge). If you've never been to Natural Bridge, you should go. It's an easy two-mile hike with much to see, and there are so many area attractions that you could easily spend 2 days there. Although it was very wet and a bit messy, we had a great time. Here are just a few pictures from our weekend. They do not tell the entire story, but will give you a general picture of how much fun you can actually have on a chilly, damp weekend in early May.
