Day 40: Still heading east on I-64

I had hoped to snap a photo at our last campsite for the trip, but, as expected  given the weather forecast, it is rainy and foggy as I type.

The day started out cool and sunny in Kentucky, and the decent weather continued up to Charleston, WV.  The drive through the windy, hilly portion of I-64 between Charleston and the Virginia border was done through rain, with low clouds over the mountain tops. 

Our stop for the night, in Dawson WV, is at another privately-run campground, right along the highway.  It's a set of graveled parking spaces, with all utilities, in a family's farm---very basic.  Ranger enjoyed a walk during a brief reprieve from the rain, with calves and cows to see and lots of green, green grass.  This evening, it's very quiet, as people are staying inside.  Upper 50's, rainy, foggy....a miserable night to be camping, but we are snug in our Navion.  It was a good night for hot soup and a grilled cheese sandwich.  

Just over 200 miles to drive tomorrow, going home!


And after an evening of rain and a night of high winds, we awoke to a beautiful morning in West Virginia.
