The location of this post (The Dismal Swamp Welcome Center) will probably confuse regular readers. They know that this place is a twice yearly stop for us, nearly a ritual in our marine migration pattern. No, we are not back on Tarwathie yet, but we are very close. This is the last day of our 4.5 month road trip.
Friday and Saturday, we were with fellow Westsailors at the Westsail Rendezvous in Deale Maryland. That was lots of fun. It is very interesting that no two W32 are alike. Every one of them has some kind of customization that is an excellent idea. I have several new ones on my list as future projects to consider.
Today, Google Maps charted an adventurous route seeing that it was Sunday Morning. We went from NSA headquarters in Fort Meade Maryland to downtown Washington DC. We went past The Capitol, The Gangplank Marina and The Pentagon. Traffic today was light. At Fredricksburg, we left I95 in favor of one of our favorite byways, US Route 17. That took us past Urbanna, Yorktown, Portsmouth, to Deep Creek and The Dismal Swamp. Still to come are Elizabeth City, Edenton, and then to Dave and Cathy's house tonight.
I'll write summary blogs about our trip later. I'll also blog about US 17 another time. The famous American icon, Route 66, has almost disappeared, but US 17 is largely preserved. It's glories deserve song.
