Good Monday to you all. K and I are here in Fries, VA, at the Fries New River Trail RV Park, and we'll be here until Sunday. We arrived yesterday evening after a nearly 5-hour trek, the last 90 minutes of which were spent driving through heavy fog in the mountains and then on winding, hilly country roads until we reached the campground.
It is a small campground. Quaint. Nestled alongside a stream that runs into the New River. The river runs past about a quarter of a mile from here.
We were able to cook turkey burgers on the grill. It didn't start to rain until the wee hours of the morning. This morning, I made breakfast inside - bacon, egg, and cheese sammies on English muffins.
K is working remotely this morning. So am I, in a manner of speaking.
I created the montage with pictures I took shortly after we got set up last evening. I'll post more as we get going out and about.
How is your week going so far?

This is a neat little town on the banks of the New River and far off the beaten track. We haven't explored much of it yet, but will during the week we're here.
On our short walk this morning, we found two churches and the town school. Our next mission is to find out if the town has a market or gas station.

I went to the New River Gorge in West Virginia a couple of years ago, and the information there says the “New River” is actually the second-oldest river on earth.
Hope the bad weather missed you last night, and that you have a great week!!!

You don’t look old enough to be a retired person.
I’m glad you made it in the fog on winding roads! Hopefully, you continue to enjoy this time together.
My week has been fine. A visit to the neurologist for Botox for migraines, and getting groceries feels like a productive start of the week.
