So blue, they're black

These West Virginia back roads are so blue, they're black! We've been traveling on lovely winding, climbing roads through the green mountains. It just takes us a day and a half to get anywhere! The hills appear covered in velvet folds of new spring growth. The weather has been perfect and the campground last night was almost empty. Doug and I had fun catching up with Patty and Chuck in Roanoke on Tuesday and then made it to Greenbrier State Forest for the night. For someone who used to eat somewhat healthy, I have gone downhill big time. Yesterday I set a personal record by hitting Wendy's for a potato and a 'frosty' (what is that stuff?), and then cruised into a Subway for a carbo-loaded sub for dinner. Yum! The only greens I ate in 24 hours were some broccoli flakes on the cheese-soaked potato. Let's see what Ohio has to offer.
