Non-eventful day, not always a bad thing!

October 18 – Hardly worth the time to write about today!  We did nothing but drive 276 miles.  We took our time this morning and we didn’t leave until 10:30.  There were a few early birds today but quite a few like us, not in a major rush.

We left on ¼ tank of fuel so about an hour down the road we stopped for diesel and to wash the nasty windshield.  It was another place that limits your fuel to $75 but Bill did it twice more to fill up. 

We stopped later for lunch and Bill talked to our camping club’s VP for a while about the upcoming campout that we will miss and to see how her trip to the UK went. 

At least the scenery became greener and more trees, as we saw more cattle, (even some belted Galloways), sheep, goats, ostrich and llamas. 

Once we drove through the city of Fredericksburg we knew we should have planned at least one more day here.  What a clean, well kept small city with tons of wineries, museums, and history.  It was established by German immigrants and have several German restaurants.  After we parked and settled in we drove back up the main street to scope things out.  We’re eating German tomorrow night! 

We came here because Bill read about a world class World War II Museum that he really wanted to visit.  I might do something else with my day.  He’s looking at HOURS there and that’s one thing that after about an hour I no longer have the attention span to do it.

We had our leftover meatloaf tonight and settled in with the TV and I had planned to do a lot on the computer but the wifi didn’t cooperate and I called the office but of course, it was after 5 and no answer and no call back.  I’ll call in the morning when I have a better chance to get someone.
