  Another of our stops on our 

2015 Sassy Silver Sisters vacation 

was the

 STAR !!

On Saturday we tried to find the STAR and thought for sure it was an easy little trip because we could see it ! 

Well, we tried and tried and up the mountain we went -- to a private residence -- oh my !! 

Down the mountain and decided we may want to get directions. DUH!

So our friend Charlie ( concierge in the executive lounge of  Roanoke Hotel & Conference Center http://www.hotelroanoke.com/ ) told us how easy it was. I told him we tend to do things backwards and he gave us directions with a map and everything ! 

Thanks again , Charlie !

Sunday we went to the star first thing ! YES,  it was easy to get to with proper directions.

Beautiful view -- sooo beautiful !! 

You have to go when you are in the area .
