We finally made it back to Solomons and it's nice to be home. We spent last night in Waynesboro, Virgina right at the intersection of 81 and 64. I expected to stop, check in some cheap motel, grab a beer and eat at some indescribible chain restaurant, like Outback. We got lucky and found a very pleasant new Residence Inn at a reasonable rate and across the street was a terrific sensibly priced restaurant with well thought out food and wine menus called the South River Restaurant and Wine Shop. If you're ever traveling 81 or 64 and looking for a good stop, stop here. I know I will.
Quick thoughts on every place we stayed:
Richmond,VA - The Carytown area is a fun place to eat, drink, and walk. A little off the highway though.
Greenville,SC - Wonderful little city. I could live there. I always stop here when I'm on 85.
Destin,FL - Busy resort town with lots to do. Good for families.
Grayton Beach,FL - Very small old beach town. We got a place there next year for two months.
Rayne,LA - Good people, good fun. Would like to go there every Mardi Gras, if I could handle it.
Hot Springs,AR - Don't bother unless you like gardens or horse racing.
Tulsa, OK - Nah
Wichita,KA - Nope.
Louisville,KY - Definitely worth doing with a family or solo. Many things to see and do.
Waynesboro,VA - Nothing there except the South River Restaurant which is worth the stop.
Just a log of places we visited. The main purpose which is to settle arguments about where we went and what we did when. I'm pretty sure that I'll still be accused of incorrect posts.

Thanks for the travel log. Welcome back.
Two months in Florida next year? Wow!
Double D is in Grayton Beach, right?
Always love reading the blog. . . and traveling through your eyes. Lord knows I can't get "you know who" to go anywhere.
Welcome home.
