We chose the very best time of year to travel through the Shenandoah Valley alongside the Blue Ridge Mountains. The leaves are just beginning to change and they are amazing.
We stopped for luncheon in old-timey Staunton, Virginia (pronounced Stanton). The Staunton Railroad Station in tucked up on the hillside. Trains still run through the beautifully restored station, and they have a nice restaurant called The Pullman.
We hated to leave the Victorian gobbledy gook of Staunton, but the siren song of the highway called us . . . or maybe it was the travelling cd that Katy made us. (Katy, we sang along very loudly to the whole thing. Your cd confirms that you and Isabelle have identical musical taste.) Then we had miles ahead of the hard drivin. The life we love is singing music from our friends. We can't wait to be on the road again!
Bristol, Tee Enn a see, was a respite from the heavy strumming of that ole road song. We relaxed, watched Tee Vee and ate at Out Back Steak House. Yall whant more sweet tea?
