Appalachia somewhere
We’re taking three days to drive to Oklahoma to see Louis’s parents, so today marked day one. The route (google map) took us through the Shenandoah Valley on Route 66, through the Allegheny Mountains of West Virginia, and about 20 miles into Kentucky, just barely missing the tri-state point of West Virginia/Ohio/Kentucky.
No, I'm not going to tell you the exposure time of my camera so that you can derive how fast we were going.
I’m writing from a Day’s Inn in Grayson, and it makes me wonder why I thought even for a second that it would be fun to go camping every night after driving for eight hours. And I didn’t even do any driving, but my brain is still fried! We had fun times on the road though. I’m sorry we didn’t get to do Skyline Drive, but it would have taken us too far south, alas. Next time!
Long, long day tomorrow, so I’ll sign off now.
No avalanches here!
We had spotty rain after crossing the Eastern Continental Divide.
Some freaky clouds coming into Charleston, West Virginia
It's anyone's guess what a Magnetic Donkey Party is... seen at a TGIF
I'd never eaten at a TGIF before. I had a nice Chicken Cobb salad. And I paid close attention to the trains.
What is this thing? This so-called Pop-sicle?
