June 24th Visit to the Blue Ridge Music Center near Galax, VA.

After settling in at the Wal Mart, and making several stops in downtown Galax, I went on over to the Blue Ridge Music Center on the Parkway itself.  

The GPS took me a goofy way to the Center, down a dirt road for nearly 2 miles, the "back way", but I managed to find it, in a misting rain.   The Center is a fairly newer building dedicated to telling the history of Bluegrass and Mountain music, and does an excellent job.    While I was there, there were two fellows playing for a very small crowd out in the building, would have liked to have sit in, but was on a schedule.   

One of the interior displays:

Didn't know the Gibson company made banjos and mandolins.....

And, got the stamp
