Day 23: 8/21/09: West Virginia
359 miles: Camped (or rather parked) at Matt and Jaime's house near Shinnston, WV.
Last day of driving for a few days!! Zoey and I were up and packed by 8:00 this morning. We took a few minutes to check out one of the ceremonial mounds created by the Native Americans over two thousand years ago. By 9:00 we were on the road.
Not much exciting to write about in my travels on this day. No rants, or philosophical ramblings today. As we drove, the flat lands of Indiana
transitioned to the rolling fields of Ohio, to the mountains of
West Virginia. I got to Matt's about 3:00, and promptly started relaxing. And that's how I spent the rest of the afternoon. Here I am hanging with my grandson Chasen.
So, a slow paced, relaxing weekend is in store. I'll post the next update Sunday night.
See y'all later......... (that's West Virginia talk)

Hi Dave and Zoey,
ReplyDeleteBack from down east tonight and loved to keep up with your trip and postcard pictures and the video was great. WiFi was not the greatest in New Brunswick, but sometimes could do the trick.
Talk to you soon - lots to catch up on,
Lisa and Bob
Dave
ReplyDeleteLauren was able to get me to this site - the pictures are great and we have both enjoyed keeping track of your trip. What's the quota on purchasing West Virginia Beer on a Sunday? We look forward to seeing you home and hearing stories of your trip. Travel safely.
