Assateague to Charlottesville

We left Assateague early Wednesday, November 22 - some of the pictures below are still from there. We took off in a rain storm with Harry doing a great job of getting us to Charlottesville - about six hours. Our campsite in C'ville is what probably most of us think of as an "rv campsite" but it turned out to be really good for us. This was the first time we had a hook up for electricity, water and our very own sewer dump and we had to back in the camper. That was the royal "we." All of these were camping firsts - hooking up those services, using the sewage dump, BACKING IN!!! We also unhitched from the camper for the first time since we planned on going into C'ville to eat and tour. Big milestones for us. So we rewarded ourselves with a meal out at a lovely restaurant in C'ville called C&O recommended by Gail and Ethan. Totally agree! One of the pictures below is of the restaurant and another one of those pictures is of my lovely fig and goat cheese salad. The next day was Thanksgiving and we had reservations in the late afternoon at Maya's. Before dinner we spent the afternoon walking around the University of Virginia which was inspiring - so beautiful and I love to think of my dear friends who attended here. Thus ended November 23rd.Read more
