The day started with Alex dragging our tow dolly up Jack's steep driveway. Melissa was standing around taking pictures while the dolly very nearly went backwards down the hill, but she figured out that she was needed and came over and gave the last shove to get it up over the bump.

We did a lot of driving today! We went a bit over 600 miles, and look how many new states we passed through!

Virginia took most of the day. The one thing we noticed is that their entry and exit ramps to the highway are SHORT. This made it so a lot of dumb people showed up RIGHT in front of us, going about 40 miles per hour. We did a lot of yelling "GO FASTER!!!!" and didn't actually crash into anybody.


West Virginia was very quick. We just popped right out the other side and into...


Which also blew right by. It was literally 45 minutes between leaving Virginia and arriving in....

When we hit Pennsylvania we saw some Amish people--horse-drawn carriage, paisley cotton dresses and bonnets, et al. There was probably more than that, but it's late now and we're going to bed. We have to get up early tomorrow so we can make sure to be in New Hampshire by the afternoon!
