I travel along Brandon Avenue just about everyday. Whether going home from work, or coming back across town from Salem the road is a primary route that I use frequently to get around.

This weekend I was the passenger in a vehicle coming back towards Roanoke from the Salem area, and I snapped a few photos of some of the sites along the way:

The railroad is never too far away at about any spot in Roanoke, and just off the street here. This is technically Salem (and Apperson Drive) but the back of the sign that marks the border can be seen to the right.

A wooden fence marks a vast and open field that exists at and just beyond the intersection at Peters Creek Road Ext.

(Note: I explored the above section of Brandon Avenue in a previous post.)

The recently renovated Patrick Henry High School can be seen in the distance when waiting for the traffic light to change at the intersection with Grandin Avenue.

Lakewood Park seen just off to the right of Brandon Avenue.

(Note: I explored Lakewood Park in a previous post too!)

Towers Mall is bustling with shoppers.
