That Town That Thomas Built
Charlottesville, Virginia has not one, but two UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Both of which are designed my Thomas Jefferson: The University of Virginia and Montecello, his home. And both are worth a visit.

The Blue Ridge Parkway is a National Parkway that runs for 469 miles along part of the Appalachian Mountains. It runs from North Carolina to Virginia and offers some very scenic views along this well maintained road.
Rather than following the same route the last time I drove along the Eastern seaboard, I took a look at a map and opted to head inland a bit. Anything to avoid the wretched Myrtle Beach again!
Picked up the RV in Jacksonville today and made a B-line north to resume the circumnavigation of North America. Got as far as Charleston, SC where I’ll call it a night.
Back in Austin for a little family gathering. Still one of the top cities in the US. Great food. Great music. Great nightlife. Great art. Great people. It almost doesn’t even feel like Texas here! ZING!
