We’re Headin’ In the Wrong Direction!

Texas was hot. Florida was heaven. South Carolina was warm and muggy. North Carolina was breezy and cool (but sunny!). Virginia Beach, VA is downright COLD and it’s raining buckets. And we just got a phone call from Maine and, you guessed it, it’s snowing there. We’re headin’ in the wrong direction!

We left Salter Path, North Carolina early this morning and actually arrived in Virginia Beach ahead of schedule. We’ve stayed at this campground before and we like it a lot. But, they’re still not up and running 100% for the season. The children were disappointed because the store and gameroom won’t open until the end of the month. Ali took Max to the park, but then the rain came in torrents.

We’re all stuck here in the RV. There’s no cable TV here, which is a good thing (in my opinion anyway!). I cooked chicken, stuffing and corn for dinner. We had to use the oven instead of the grill because of the rain. We’re working tonight while Ali and Frank are doing their homeschooling lessons. Max is watching his tape of Milo and Otis…for about the hundredth time. He’s pretending he’s a dog. I had to reprimand Frank for giving Max a dog biscuit. Don’t worry. He’d only licked it by the time I figured out what he had.

We’re touring Williamsburg, Virginia tomorrow, even though the rain is supposed to continue. That’s why God made umbrellas, right?!
