Well thank you ! ....While it is a road job beyond extradorniary from an engineer's point of view ; as you stated but in different vernacular ;"what a damn shame " ! ...People who think this is such a wonderful thing to do remind me of those who go to the nearby parkway on Sunday afternoons and drive 60 mph ; I guess to make sure they don't enjoy it for what it is.
@@peggyagee5582 I noticed this reply some days ago and honestly ; I tried to let it go but ,...the last word "simple" seems somehow to keep reminding me that "don't like don't use" is more befitting a brand of bread or mayonase . That reply itself might best be described as "simplistic" . The building of a road is Not the real subject.. It truly is an engineering marvel ! The objection I have here is the absolute ravage of some beutiful mountains , not to mention one of the truly notable scenic drives we have left in this part of Virginia... And , that no construction crew , politician , or any other source can ever replace....and...for what end ? So we can get from Stuart to Meadows of Dan a few moments sooner ???..Really ?? There is a song lyric of some years back that seems befitting...It is : "We tore down Paradise to build a parking lot " !
I agree. We loved traveling up to go camping, and now the once beautiful, peaceful drive is destroyed! They have ruined beautiful land that we will never regain for one more stupid road!!! We can't make any more land, people! Greedy a**h*les.
What is being done to this mountain is so sad. The businesses that will be affected…the history that is being lost, not to mention the wild life that is being affected…it’s just awful…all in the name of “progress” 🥲
Thanks for the video on this area. My grandmother was from Patrick County. She was a Reynolds.
Glad you enjoyed it
The soundtrack really fits. Appropriate to the inexorable march of time and progress.
Thank you. That was my goal.
Such an engineering project, love the video updates!
Well done, yet again ~ Thank you
It would be kind of cool if you could interview someone or say whats happening as we see the different shots. Nice video!
Fantastic
brother.fantastic , bye.
Thanks 👍
There is only 3 visible Sasquatch hidden in this video! Needs more Sasquatch!
You need to tell that to the Sasquatch. I am only the unblinking eye of technology. Lol!
If I was doing this job it would already been done they are to slow of taking the mtn down
Tearing up a beautiful mountain and spending millions of dollars for a stupid highway we don’t need

Don’t like don’t use. Simple.
