Well over 400 miles is under your belt when you leave Tennessee and enter Virginia. Stayed in a motel for $7.28 and got some Ice Cream in a Dairy Queen. Yesterday, the fifth of July 1974 we took a break from the wet and rainy trail on this road.
In the town did the usual, hit the Post Office where I got my Gerry Lodgepole tent that had been forwarded from further north at my request. And of course got my wash done and a good shower. Here is a shot of the tent behind the motel.
The blue sleeping bag is mine, a Trailwise Slimline.
