Charlottesville!

We arrived at Misty Mountain Campground in Crozet, Virginia, late this afternoon. Decided not to check in with the kids yet as we told them we wouldn't be here before Wednesday. Had several things to do, since we will be here for 10 days. Decided we could set up more than the usual. We almost didn't get a spot as there is a "Rolling Stones" concert this week. Hmmmmmmmmmmm. Wonder if we could get tickets. Wouldn't that be fun. There are also some football games and the campground said this is their busiest month. We have been here before in October, but always at the end. So I guess next year we will have to make a reservation. We did get a nicer site than usual, but it only has electric and water, but that is okay. We will be conservative.

Didn't have any problems today. Still cannot get the generator started, but since we are here for several days, Terry is going to have a look at it. Also we are going to try our luck at getting bloodwork done on the road, since he has to have it so often. We called a lab which has many locations throughout the U.S. and they told him to come in at 8 a.m. and they would have his results faxed to his doctor. So we shall see how it works.

We are camped next to an interesting couple. She is retired military. . . a nurse who did tours of duty in Korea, Vietnam, and Desert Storm. She is a retired Colonel. Very nice.

It's been tough adjusting to this lifestyle. Sleeping in every day. . . . you know. Someone has to do it, it might as well be us. Oh well. Have to get up tomorrow for the lab work, so better get off to bed. I still haven't posted any rally pictures. When I get to Jocelyn's tomorrow, I will have a broadband connection, so will upload some pictures then.

Till next time . . .

I thought about calling to see where you were.

There were still tickets left in all the various price ranges a day or two ago. They range from $60 to $350.
