I ended up in West Virginia today. Now I can check that off the map.
We were driving to an outlet mall. We saw a big sign for it, but me, being a stickler for the rules said, the GPS didn't say anything about that, so it must be just a bill board. We drove 30 minutes out of our way, and saw a big sign saying welcome to West Virginia. Yay!
We stopped off at a gas station rest stop to stretch, bathroom break, and ask for directions to Washington PA. They sure like their 'R's' over there. The guy told me to turn right and keep going to 'Warshington PA'.
After a few more wrong turns, and asking an Indian guy for directions, which only I could understand, it turned out that if we turned our heads just a bit we could see that sign that we spotted waaaaaay back when, and yup, we found it!
Only 40 minutes to shop until closing, but I managed to get some stuff.
Everyone agreed it was a fun day even though we got lost, and I can now say that I was in another one of the great 50 states of which I will eventually cover all of them.
Good times. Glad to see you're having fun :)
ReplyDelete:) Thanks. Yes, fun is a good thing along with the stress and responsibility. But now it is almost 2 am and I still have stuff to do for camp. Was it worth it to go shopping and have fun? Yes. But I wish there was more hours in the day to sleep.
ReplyDelete(Tongue in cheek:) Sleep is overrated.
ReplyDeleteGoodnight.
snort. wish my body could figure that out.
ReplyDeleteI went to WV once to visit a friend, I was the only Jew in her town when I was there, I could certainly share some stories if you like.
ReplyDeletepretty neat, i've always wanted to say i've been to ___ (insert random state name here). AU only has 6 states and 2 territories so there aren't really any random places!
