Getting Closer

We had a beautiful drive through the Appalachian Mountains. The scenery in West Virginia is breathtaking. We have stopped for the night in Beckley, WV. Tomorrow it will be a five and a half hour drive to DC. We hope to get there in time to visit the Air and Space museum by Dulles Airport. If not, then we will stop on the way home. After nearly 12 hours in the car, we're pooped. Good night.

Day 2

After being checked into our motel by norman bates' twin brother we arose this morning to a beautiful Ozark mountain overlook in Rolla Missouri. We took off this morning at 8:10. We have so far seen the gateway arch, the Mississippi River, and numerous references to lincoln. We have been enjoying the countryside as we are approaching Hoosier National Forest. 11 1/2 hours away from Washington DC. More later.

Attached is the view from the Best Western in Rolla.

Didn't we do this last year?

Off again to DC. We got off to our usual late start so we're not going to get as far as we hoped. To change it up we are taking a different than last year. We will post a link to our route later. As we write this we are driving into Springfield Missouri and planning on stopping at Rolla for the night. We listened to the royals until they fell behind then we popped in some Abba. Thank you for joining us and we hope you enjoy travelling along with us.
