Cross Country Adventure - Day 2 - West Virginia to Nashville, TN

Day 2 of our trip began in a much more leisurely manner than Day 1. It started with a hearty breakfast provided by our hosts, Angela and John, during which we met our fellow guests and exchanged travel stories, followed by a stroll along a quiet lane near the farm. Along the way we watched as a long line of ducks waddled to a nearby stream, and we got a friendly wave from a passing tractor driver. New York seemed like a million miles away.

Cross Country Adventure - Day 1 - NY to Clendenin, WV

Day one of our cross country road trip from NY to LA started off bright and sunny. And early. This would be our longest day of driving, a deliberate decision given that much of the start of the journey would be along a route familiar to us - through New York, New Jersey and into Pennsylvania.  We made good time at first, managing to avoid the rush hour traffic (another benefit of the early start) and, once past Newark, NJ, enjoyed the tree-lined open road.
