Some facts about the Park:
Established in December 1935 - has about 200,000 acres
105 miles long stretching from Front Royal, Virginia to the Waynesboro-Charlottesville area.

President Herbert Hoover had a "Summer White House" at Rapidan Camp. The Hoovers donated Rapidan Camp to the Commonwealth of Virginia in 1932 for use as a summer retreat for subsequent presidents. In December 1935, it officially became part of Shenandoah National Park. The last president to use Rapidan Camp was President Carter in 1977.

I also had to laugh at the gas station sign - our gasoline here in California is now $3.22 a gallon (that's for regular) - UGH!
Thanks for sharing your photographic eye...it was a treat!
