April 23…We made it to Waynesboro, VA

We are on kinda of a roll and traveled over 500 miles to Waynesboro, Virginia,  home of our former Long Beach  neighbors, John and Betty Loudermilk.  We were fortunate that they were available for dinner on Monday, but our favorite restaurant was not.   Not to worry, they took us to the neighboring town of Staunton. What a treat this was.  The buildings in the downtown are original and the town is charming.  I cannot think of anything I would enjoy more that being dropped there for a day of shopping.  This downtown is quaint and authentic, not catering to tourists. 

We did drive the Blue Ridge Skyline Road separating the Shenandoah Valley from the Pieadmont.  The trees had not leafed out and the valley floor was cloudy…in a few weeks it will be beautiful…today it was not.
