Thanks for the suggestion, and I'll definitely ask about those other roads the next time we head down. We actually did have a good time -- went to Staunton, saw a Shakespeare play at the Blackfriars, wandered around Staunton, then headed over to Montpelier for the day. It was a very enjoyable trip, but yes, would have been great to tear up Skyline Drive in the Cayman!
As far as where that shot was taken - oh, at one of the many pulloffs on Skyline Drive (on the right side as you're heading south). Can't remember which one.
