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 .
