Nathan & Dad's Big Adv. - Day 10


JESSUP, MD - Fianlly made it home about 6:30 pm. We had got up latter than I'd hoped and had breakfast at Waffle House. We left Roanoke a little after nine.

Decided that since it wasn't THAT far out of the way, to take Nathan to Mustoe to see Nanny's home place. We visited the house, church, and the cemetary where a lot of her family (including parents) are buried. We ate lunch at the Mountain Hideaway up the road in Montarey.

On the way back to 81, we stopped at the Confederate Breastworks overlook. Enjoyed the view, read some of the markers, and even found a cache on the site.

It was great to hitting the landmarks that meant we were home. Congestion on 66, the Beltway, seeing the Welcome to Maryland sign at the Legion Bridge, taking the 95 north exit, entering Howard County, taking the Laurel exit, and finally arriving home. Every one got a big cheer from each of us.

Already starting to think of ideas for Nathan & Dad's Next Big Adventure 2007.
