[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1615106, member: 234411"] Hi again [B]Ken[/B] - it's amazing that the iPad 2 remains the most popular model in use (see attach pie diagram) and great that Apple allowed iOS 8.x to be installed on the aging device - I suspect the next iOS w/ leave my device an orphan, so will then consider a new one. YES but much more specifically the [I]Linn Cove Viaduct[/I] which snakes around the base of Grandfather Mountain (near Blowing Rock which we visit often - just 90 mins from home for us) - it was the LAST portion of the Blue Ridge Parkway completed - the year was 1987 about a half century after the parkway was started in the 1930s. It is an amazing engineering feat (information [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linn_Cove_Viaduct"]HERE[/URL]) - there is a small visitor's center w/ pictures of its construction and a short trail under the structure which is the best way to appreciate the construction.
