Roadside Snapshot: The Big Little Apple of Thaxton, Virginia
With only a single bar left on the gas gauges, Kenny and I hopped off of the Blue Ridge Parkway in search of gas. After a few stabs at the screen, we followed the GPS over hill and dale to what seemed like the middle of nowhere. We popped out of a rambling farm road next to a major roadway in the town of Thaxton, Virginia.
While Kenny tended to menfolks work (lifting heavy objects, pumping gas, paying for things), I went off to do much more important lady things like gathering nuts and fruit.
Considering I found a giant little apple on a stick, one might argue that I was clearly better at doing my job. Look at the size of it! The gas pumps he found were just regular sized.
While Kenny was busy doing his job (which I will grade as poorly due to regular sized pumps) I also briefly thought about trying to get inside of the apple ride next to Lowly Worm.
But then I wisely reconsidered as visions of having the fire department come with the jaws of life to extract me flitted through my mind.
It was probably best to not kill my husband of just a few weeks with sheer embarrassment. See how considerate I am? You’re welcome, babe!
I think you should have attempted the little apple ride.
You could have asked for donations to payfor the rescue bill. I’d pay to see it. 🙂
Hailing from the Big Apple it’s nice to see the little one as well!
For sheer entertainment, yours is my favorite blog.
