Good Tuesday Morning!
So this weekend marked the first time we’ve traveled south to see my folks since this all started - more than 60 days ago. That would be the longest I’ve gone without visiting them since I moved back to West Virginia more than 15 years ago.
I was glad to get out on the farm, and take in the spring in the mountains - it’s one of my favorite things in life, and only happens once a year.
That all said, it was a little strange still - and I think will be for a long time. I don’t trust the reopening. We fuel up in Morgantown and do everything we can to not stop until we get to the house. We’ve historically enjoyed stopping at little restaurants along the way home, and I don’t know when I’ll be ready to do that again. We’ve started traveling like we did with my folks when I was a kid - cooler and a picnic always ready in the back of the truck, only stopping if we need fuel, and only eating what we brought with us.
The good news about that is, if you are setup to travel that way, you can take most any route you want.
Even the back way.
Hope folks have a great week.
