Review: Wilderness Road Campground – Ewing, Virginia

Twice during the month of October, I ventured up to north Georgia in hopes of catching the leaves showing off their fall colors. Hiked up Blood Mountain on Monday, Oct. 5, reached the top to find the beautiful green leaves of the north Georgia forest. Yep. Too early for color changes. Waited 13 days, then…
