It's the same general area and the pitstops are way cooler, they would be in old railroad depots! Anybody game? If so, help me reach Gene Dixon and the Twilight crew ASAP. Let's make it happen in 2011.
Coming to you April 29-30...see ya here.

escape to DC
georgia had a white xmas and after we took it in with all the family, we hit the road headed north. we did wait out the storm a day just to avoid all the nutters and rookies on the road. then we hit the mountain route north which was scenic and snow covered. pitstops at VaTech, Skyline Drive made for nice diversions en route. fancy gap isnt all that fancy but they do have some serious fog. i'd consider a rename myself. the metro wasnt crowded, the museums are still all free, and annapolis still has the best crabcakes on the planet. all told it was a fine week of monument seeking, museum strolling, dog walking, picture taking fun. a few moments like attack of the stink bugs and an emergency root canal weren't planned, but we dealt with them and were back on track lickety split. all told, it was a fun, cheap, refreshing, week in DC.
