21st. Street in Buena Vista looking east towards Indian Gap in the Blue Ridge. Mostly a blue collar community in the shadow of better known and nearby neighbor to the west, Lexington. October's rains here come with enough chill to announce the end of summer with finality; making the early falling leaves clump and then mat together on the street and tires to whisper on the roads. Thoughts give way to harvest and hunting, family, football and the coming holidays.
