DC at last.

Driving through Virginia we crossed the Shenandoah River into horse country. There was real artistry in the 3-4 feet high stone fences that surrounded many of the farms and estates. We saw our first vineyards since we left Sonoma County. The multiple intersections continue, which are pretty easily navigated through large roundabouts. The ones in SR are too small, that is why they haven't worked.

Definitely back in suburbia, traffic was a bear, compounded by several road projects along the way. Our first drive into the Capitol was nerve wracking to say the least. We are camped at Bull Run Regional Park about 25 miles away. Tomorrow we are moving to a more centrally located RV park with all the urban amenities...like a laundry room and wi-fi. No more driving into town. It will be public transit all the way.

On our way back home I spotted a Goodwill. A viet noodle house was right next door for a late lunch. The prices are pretty high on most items so pickings are pretty slim. In Ohio I found a nice Lands End jacket which I bought, thinking it would be staying on the cool side. Temperatures had been in the mid 50's to low 60's since Nebraska. Today it is 84 degrees and really humid. Thundershowers are predicted for tomorrow.
