Today was a typical Winter day, dull, cold and wet, no sun at all.
We got under way at 7:50am, which was about 30 minutes later than I had planned, but my new line is I am retired and I don't care. The roads were mostly dry, with some wet spots, no snow and no ice, that was good. We crossed the border at Fort Erie/Buffalo with no cars in front of us and two questions citizenship and what was the license of the trailer, then we were off.
Stopped at the T/A truck stop for a Wilson Wily CB antenna, made a big difference in reception.
I drove to 11:30 and after our lunch stop (can't remember the name - "Barney Version" syndrome*), Karen took over driving, so I could continue my sleeping, she drove 5 hrs, to Beckley.
The GLK is great on gas around town, but with the trailer attached - lots of gas, every 300km, at $45@, so you only go around once as I say.
This evening we went to a great Italian Restaurant, called Pasquale Mira's Italian Restaurant (www.beckleyitalian.com), worth the stop/visit you will not be disappointed, price right too.
That is about it, tomorrow it is off to Hilton Head, another 750km+ day.
Ken and Karen on the road.
