Travel Update 8



Our big event this week was Shenandoah National Park, which we absolutely loved. It of course has it's own post. As does our visit to the Wright Brothers National Memorial.

Outside of those destinations, the week was a pretty slow one. We spent a total of three nights at a Brayley Pond, a camp ground in the George Washington National Forest in Virginia. It was a great free camp ground that gave us a chance to rest and recharge. We did a short hike around the pond on Wednesday.


Other than that, we just took some to hang out and let this kids explore.

 

Unfortunately it started to get pretty cold, so it was quickly time to move on. From there we continued south to Durham, North Carolina where one of our friends from Eugene is currently living. She kindly invited us out to drinks with her work friends, which was a lot of fun. It's always great interacting with other people.

We are also excited to finally be getting into basketball season. On Saturday, the Oregon Women's Basketball team took down team USA in a historic victory. Unfortunately we couldn't find the game televised anywhere (it was an exhibition game, so strictly speaking it didn't count). Instead we parked close enough to a Walmart to get internet and constantly check for updates from Oregon Live. Having seen highlights afterwards, our suspicions are confirmed - This is the team to watch this year!
