Greetings from the Shenandoah Valley
The PU has a loud clatter under load and John has been keeping it at a low RPM. (He is going to replace the offending part when he gets to his sisters in South Carolina.)
Several barns in Ohio had "chew mail pouch tobacco, treat yourself to the best." We saw an oil well in Pennsylvania and apple trees in Virginia. We stayed to the edge of Pittsburgh, driving through two vey long tunnels; the Fort Pitt and Squirrel Hill. Many of the churches we passed had signs about serving a hot meal one day a week.
The farther east we go, the drivers are getting aggressive again. The terrain isn't as flat and we got as high as 2900 feet. The trees are turning color the higher up we went, lots of red and gold. We passed the Flight 93 memorial and several signs: DUI ( red circle line through it) you can't afford it.
Onward to DC tomorrow.
