by this afternoon I should see the Virginia state sign. To say the least, I feel like I've seen North Carolina. The ride along the coast, though extremely windy at times, was better than I could expected. Given the time of year, the mad tourist rush has yet to take shape, and yet the local businesses are open in preparation of what's to come.
It's been a long almost 2 weeks to the day - sunshine, sunburn, on and on. As such, it will be nice to start the journey west here in the next few days.
