Everything these days is green, environmentally friendly, or recycled. So, in an effort to recycle and love the environment, we are recycling a past “This Month in North Carolina History” for this month’s edition. The item was written by Harry McKown in 2004: September 1987 – The Blue Ridge Parkway.
However, there’s another good reason to recycle this article…this weekend the Parkway is celebrating its 75th anniversary. See: Blue Ridge Parkway, 1935-2010.
