February 23, 2006 - Wilson, North Carolina

We were a little late getting away and we had to stop in Richmond, Virginia to return the Powerbook I bought in New Hampshire. The unit I bought was defected and we found an Apple store that was only 1 mile off the highway so thought we would stop in and get it exchanged...no problem at all, have another one, hopefully one that works ok. Will have to check it before we leave the States, just in case. We stopped at the Virginia and North Carolina border for supper, Darlene had Liver and Onions and I had Porkchops, complete with potatos and green beans...a meal just like we would get a home...was a nice change from the ribs and chicken and shrimp we have been eating the last few days. We stopped in Wilson, North Carolina and are staying at Jameson Inn We have a room that we could drive the car right up to the door so makes it easier to cart the stuff in and out. We are planning a quiet evening of computers and TV. This is the first hotel room I have ever stayed in with a lazyboy chair, what a treat with the laptop. Oh, a funny little story before I sign off...we went to check into the hotel in Harrisonburg a couple of days ago and they always ask for a drivers license and credit card imprint, well the little one behind the desk took Darlene's driver's license and hesitated for a few minutes, then finally said, "Sorry Ma'am, what State is this driver's license from"? :-)))))...we had quite a chuckle later.
