Day Eight-Goodbye Bristol, took the scenic route, Appomattox, Hello Richmond
We are here, BEST campsite eveeeeer..........directly out in front, of course there are four lanes of highway to cross and the old gal ain't as quick as she once was. I can hit it with a stone, but the GPS says 1.5 miles. And to the side of us, about 200 yards and no highway to cross. Hard to tell with the glare, but the sign reads Center of the Universe Brewing Company, live music to the left of the building right now. Yes, outdoors, it is about 65 degrees @ 9:40 PM. We left Bristol this morning around 10 AM. We had to ride the super slab to Roanoke, Va. There I decided we weren't in that much of a hurry so we topped off with gas and my co-pilot got us onto 460 East. It is mostly divided highway that cuts right through the center of Virginia. This turned out to be a great call. The road itself was in better shape than I81 and mostly 60 miles an hour, so travel time was less than an hour more. There was beautiful scenery the whole way. Unfortunately my co-pilot...
