how hard could it be?

  Thursday meant moving day again. Was to be a relatively short day of about 170 miles. That doesn't factor in the up and up and up, well you get the picture. When you look at maps, topographical or google earth type views you see this

See those ridges running southwest to northeast. They be serious ridges. Guess we got 4 gallons to each ridge. Yep, that 5.0 was screaming up 8% grade that went on and on and on.

 Well we made it to the West Virginia welcome center and we needed a break. Took advantage of the facilities and then snapped a photo to celebrate.


I was standing there having just taken this photo when a lady working at rest stop asked if we wanted one with both of us. Sure. Rare you see us both in scene. Mary has not moved, I have not moved, camera is set to capture the same scene, just add a person. How hard can it be?



Well I guess harder than I figured. At least she got us, too bad half the sign is missing as well as the view. She had good intentions. Yep, didn't check her work till after she had walked away.

We had to exit the freeway and head down a road that makes a snake look straight as an arrow. And makes the snake look fat. Swear I hear dueling banjos again..

Our home for a few days. Nice folks and not too bad a place.




 States visited map getting pretty colored in...
