April 25 Monday - just outside of Buena Vista, Virginia

Well, we left Myrtle Beach at 8:15 in humid muggy warm weather and started to trek north.  It turned out to be a problem filled 250+ miles with one GPS problem after another.  Got one wrong message after another and did the downtown tour of Marion then ended up on Highway 501 out of Lynchburg and it was full of switch backs and we burnt the breaks off once again. Plus oil leaked out of the front right wheel bearing!  We finally arrived at Jelly Stone RV Park in Natural Bridge, Virginia at 5:00 and were very happy about that.  Since in Lynchburg we got separated from Shirley & Laurie and didn’t see them again till we arrived at the park.  No cell phone service climbing to the top of Blue Ridge Trail and down the other side.
Anyway, we are together, safe and sound and planning tomorrow?????
Thanks Paul for info on Shirley’s surgery, glad to hear all is going well!
