We were
right on schedule when we left Erie at 7:30 a.m. The sky was gray, with a
temperature in the 40s. Right out of the gate we were fooling around with Tim’s
new dash cam. Tim could not turn off the voice recorder. He promised that he
would not hold me responsible for any bad words I might say. I think he and B1
are cooking up a scheme to make money off my use of bad words.
Anyway, we swung around to Mike’s house (one of Brian’s friends), but he was not outside ready to go with us, so we were on our way down I-79 in record time.
We stopped
in Flatwoods, West Virginia at the Fiesta store. Beautiful blues and greens
dominate. Next time I have to ask D and C what colors they want before we
leave!! By the time we reached our favorite lunch spot, New River Gorge
Overlook, at about 1:30 p.m. it was in the 50s, although there was a little rain
and we could not eat outdoors. After lunch and our usual “selfie,” we were on
our way. Tim is such a good driver (except in traffic), we were able to sail
along easily.
This year we
are listening to books by Greg Iles again. Quiet
Game kept us occupied until we were north of Charlotte, North
Carolina. THEN, traffic kicked in-it was
a little after 5 p.m. We love Randy’s new app, WAZE. It really showed us the
traffic patterns, incidents, and caution areas in while driving. Now we are resting at the Hampton Inn in
Rockville where we have stayed many times before.
I’ve got to
post this and get on Words with Friends!!!
