The Drive to Drive

Sometimes I just get that feeling. Like I want to drive forever and just see where the road takes me. That was yesterday morning. I wanted to hop in the car and go until the wheels fell off.

I figured I should have some kind of direction so I looked online to find a neat place to eat somewhere in Southwest Virginia. No luck. So I started searching for the most cool looking place.

I wanted to head out to Appalachia but I figured three and a half hours was just too much driving for a day trip. I picked Hot Springs.

It's a nice place but not quite as run down and rural as I wanted. I like the look of old houses with rocking chairs on them and kids in tattered shorts running through a sprinkler. That's not what I found.

It was fun though. A nice relaxing drive through the mountains. Too bad Hot Springs doesn't have any kind of small local restaurant open for lunch and I had to settle for Subway.

Here are some pictures.
