Tonight finds us in Virginia just a few miles south of Luray Caverns and just off I-81 at Endless Caverns RV Resort. Janet and Russ are camped next to us and we are all exhausted but feeling great about the great job we all did.
We got off the ferry around 3pm on Tuesday and quickly got hooked up and on our way. We stayed in an Irving Truck stop just south of Numcton, NB and woke up at daybreak with a chicken truck on either side of us!
Wednesday we traveled all the way to Sturbridge, Mass and spent the night in a lovely shopping center which had a Wal-Mart, Linens and Things, great grocery store, Staples and several restaurants. The Wal-Mart, much to our surprise, closed at 9pm! Janet and Russ headed to a campground at the last minute when their generator didn't work.
Today we left Sturbridge, Mass and headed south through Conn., NY, PA, WV, Maryland and finally stopped around a little after 4pm. Bill drove all the way and we sure had a ton of trucks along the way! We can remember when no one knew about I-81 and we almost had it to ourselves - no longer! It was a thrill to fill up on fuel at the lower US prices and having high speed pumps!
I was headed to bed before the sun went down (with Garen's permission) but a wonderful shower has given me a short lived spirt of energy.
As we traveled along today we were getting the workmen lined up for getting the house repaired. It is really wierd to be going home and know it is all torn up and looking like swiss cheese where the wallboard has been removed but we will have a few days to get ready for Camp Canoe and each year we aim to make it different...
Tomorrow we hope to nake it to Chattanooga with the final push on Saturday morning. If we get too tired we will go to plan B - as yet to be dreamed up!
