I left out of Princeton and headed into Virginia. Got off the interstate pretty quickly and got onto some back roads. It was a pleasant ride initially, and great weather. I was surprised at all the Christmas tree farms that were in the area. At times it looked like any plot of ground that wasn't covered by rocks, was covered by a tree. Generally, another pretty area. When I turned west, I got on a really twisty road that took me over the highest peak in Virginia. There's never much traffic on these roads, and I always wonder what the locals do when it snows or freezes. I know I wouldn't be driving them under adverse conditions. There must be great bicycle trail riding in the area, because when I was coming back down the other side, I saw a lot of vans trailering bikes, taking people up the mountain. When I entered the nearest town, there were at least 8 locations for renting bikes and shuttling up the mountain. Got on the interstate near the state border and headed for home. I'm obviously not a fan of riding the interstates in general, but I must admit, when you are coming down I-26, there are some very pretty views.; Pulled into the garage around 2:30 pm and that was the end of Loop Four.&; That leaves me with the Northeast part of the country in order to finish up.&; The plan right now, is to wait until early September to do that, but as always the plan is subject to change.&; Right now, it feels really good to be home.&; One of the things about writing a blog, is that I really don't know who is reading it.&; I'll send out another notice, when I start up again, and you can either follow along&; or ignore the notice as you please.&; Until then, enjoy your summer.
I still don't know what causes all the miscellaneous items to show up.
