Ivy Creek Natural Area vocalizations near Charlottesville, VA
Recorded overnight in the park on Aug 13-14, 2016. Trees pushed down, remarkable woo-hoo sounds, possible sumarai chatter, all after the park was closed to visitors.
Ivy Creek 2016
This was my first hike down Ivy Creek in the Shenandoah in 2016. We followed the AT to the creek and then hiked down another 1.5 miles before fishing Ivy. This has become one of my favorites in the SNP but it is a difficult hike and a tight stream to fish. Recommend a short 3wt fly rod because trees/brush are everywhere.

One of the Best Hiking Trails in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia
I decided to hike the trail to the top of Humpback Rock in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. The Humpback Rock trail is less than a mile and overlooks Waynesboro, VA and is close to Charlottesville, VA.
If you are ever on the Blue Ridge Parkway or Skyline Drive in the Shenandoah National Park, make sure to hike the Humpback Rock Trail! This is one of my favorite hikes in the Blue Ridge Mountains, and it is a fairly easy and short hike with an amazing view at the top.

Hiking Torry Ridge at Sherando Lake in Augusta County, Virginia
The Torry Ridge Trail runs for about 7 miles along the ridge line of Torry Ridge, a mountain located near Sherando Lake in Augusta County, Virginia. In this video, I parked at the dam access parking area of Sherando Lake and hiked steeply up Torry Ridge following the Blue Loop A trail. Once on the ridge, I hiked a short distance north to an awesome boulder field on the east slope of the mountain. Thanks for watching!

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Charlottesville, colloquially known as C'ville and officially named the City of Charlottesville, is an independent city in the Commonwealth of Virginia. In 2016, an estimated 46,912 people lived within the city limits. It is the county seat of Albemarle County, which surrounds the city, though the two are separate legal entities. This means a resident will list Charlottesville as both their county and city on official paperwork. It is named after the British Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. The Bureau of Economic Analysis combines the City of Charlottesville with the County of Albemarle for statistical purposes, bringing its population to approximately 150,000. Charlottesville is the heart of the Charlottesville metropolitan area, which includes Albemarle, Buckingham, Fluvanna, Greene, and Nelson counties.
Charlottesville was the home of two Presidents, Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe. During their terms as Governor of Virginia, they lived in Charlottesville, and traveled to and from Richmond, along the 71-mile (114 km) historic Three Notch'd Road. Orange, located 26 miles (42 km) northeast of the city, was the hometown of President James Madison. The University of Virginia, founded by Jefferson and one of the original Public Ivies, straddles the city's southwestern border. Monticello, 3 miles (4.8 km) southeast of the city, is, along with the University of Virginia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, attracting thousands of tourists every year.

Vlog: A day out in Lynchburg VA, Farmers Market, Museum, park and Nature Zone
What a day! Its Saturday, so we ventured out to see the Lynchburg Community Market. It's in historic downtown Lynchburg. It wasn't the largest farmers market we have been to, but it was a good one. There was a live Jazz band playing, fresh fruits and vegetables, homemade crafts and people watching galore! After the market, we walked around downtown and saw the sights. They have these painted pianos all around town, that are there to play. And the boys did just that. We have played on at least 4 of them, and I think there are 8. Check out Hill City Keys. #hillcitykeys. Next we walked up a bunch of stairs to the Lynchburg museum. Its a small museum on a hill overlooking town rich in the areas history.
Next we drove over and had a picnic at a park, then walked across the street to The Nature Zone. It's in the Local Parks and Rec building. It's full of animals and information about animals, and its all kid friendly. The boys got to touch various animals, and look at furs, skulls, and other artifacts. Overall it was a great day. Lynchburg is a great place to visit. Oh, and the Children's museum is pretty cool too. We didn't go today, but went last week.
