Gatlinburg TN to Wytheville VA
Kelly reported this morning that her sore throat was gone. Blaming it on allergies, I stopped taking Zycam.
We had a productive day. We pulled everything out of the pass-through storage under the front and back portions of the trailer and organized. We took everything out of the truck, too. We can now get to all our gear more easily. We still need to organize the bunk house in the back of the trailer, and figure out under-sink storage, but we’re moving along.
Late in the afternoon, Kelly asked me what I’d like to do for the weekend. Weekends are scary around here. Hundreds, probably thousands, of people arrive for weekend getaways. The roads become clogged and walking the trails feels like being at a big store with crowded aisles. We generally stay close to home, but I was feeling restless. Jokingly, I suggested a road trip to the ‘Burgh to surprise Lori for her 50th birthday. Not jokingly, Kelly agreed.
We packed in a fury, throwing kayak gear and warm weather clothes in a heap on the trailer floor. Kelly called Debbie for a place to stay and I called Beth to ensure there’d be room for us at the Sunday surprise party.
We didn’t leave until 7:00-ish and drove as far as Wytheville. You might remember – Wytheville was our first stop when we left Pennsylvania back in November. It felt great to be on the road and we were excited about seeing our friends.
