June 6,7,8, - Greensboro, NC

The day started out normally enough. Sunny and cool and a little windy. Stopped for lunch in Tight Squeeze, Va, not toooo far from South Boston, VA where Jeff and Ward Burton are from (NASCAR if you're thinking who the Burton Boys are!).

We crossed over into North Carolina about 12:30 p.m. and it wasn't far to the campground--or at least it shouldn't have been far. The directions on MapQuest and in the campground directory weren't the best. You have 40/85 running together and apart in Greensboro and to further confuse you, there's BUS 40 and BUS 85. Crazy. We eventually found the campground. It's an old KOA that's and urban campground now. That means, RV's and trailers that will never move again and lots of construction workers. It's the only one around, so it's "ok."

David has a job in Burlington, NC on Thursday and Friday so this is close enough for him to drive back and forth. He asked where Walmart was and was given a two page printed sheet of area locations. Only problem is, you can't get to any of them from the directions! We tried going several places listed and NEVER got there. Finally gave us. I called Stephanie and she told me Panera Bread had wi-fi and we found it. Stopped in for a couple of hours to check mail and update the blog somewhat. It was SO hot in there! Turned out we were sitting near the oven! We bought some bread for supper and it should have been registered as a deadly weapon. It was Italian bread and hard as a rock! Tasted good if you could ever bit it.

Later that evening, I saw Carl and Mary Jane pull in! They hadn't planned to stay at that campground, so we went over to see what had happened. They had bad directions to their campground and another didn't have space for them. They found the one we were in by luck! LOL Mary Jane and I talked until our husbands called us in for dinner! LOL Hope you reach home safely!

Chrissy has turned into a picky eater like her mom. She's decided brunch and late evening are now her meals of choice. She's even taken to moving her food out of the bowl and lining it up and then eating the pieces she likes. Crazy dog!

Thursday was a quiet day. David went to work and I worked on craft projects for Campers on Mission. I cut out about 100 fun foam door hangers and worked on some beaded bracelets. I need more supplies, so I hope we find Walmart soon.

Chrissy and I met a one year old dachshund who looks just like Chrissy. Apparently Lucy thought Chrissy was the dominant dog as she rolled right over when Chrissy walked up! After that Chrissy sat down and ignored Lucy! She and I headed home as it was about time for David.

David arrived back home and we had a quiet dinner, some TV, reading, etc.

Friday - David had back to work, but it should be a short day for him. Chrissy and I walked and she decided she was a squirrel dog! She's yelping and pointing and trying to climb the tree the squirrel went up. No luck, though.

David got in early and we got ready for dinner. We're meeting our friends Eddie and Susan Gazaway in Burlington. Eddie's sister, Judy, is also coming. I've never met Susan, but had heard lots of great things about her. She and Eddie have been married a little over a year now. David and Eddie went to high school together. He and Susan live in Raleigh. We met for dinner at Outback and had a great time.

Saturday - Laundry Day - what an experience! The laundry room is just off the office and has 4 washers and 4 dryers. We had 3 loads of laundry so were reading while the washing was going on. One of the ladies running the campground came over to the sink and started cleaning something with AMMONIA! The room was small and I couldn't take the smell so I fled! I don't know what she was thinking! I started reading in the large room and got up to check the laundry. When I came back, some guy had my stuff I was reading! Not my day! Anyway, we have clean clothes and towels again! Light evening and one more day here!

Saturday - Mt. Airy! On to another blog day!

See ya down the road!
