Day Six – Rest Day, Still in Wytheville

I know y’all are wondering about our first official rest day.  After letting everyone sleep in just a little bit, we ate a quick breakfast and headed up to Big Walker Lookout.  Art and JP stayed behind to catch up on laundry but soon headed up to the lookout themselves.  As you can see, this thing is crazy tall.  If you look real close you can see the boys standing at the top.

The view was spectacular – or so the pictures show.  Only Bobby and Terran went up making fun of their chicken parents on their climb.  Bruce and I were quite happy to keep our feet on the ground.

We headed back down the mountain and went for a quick walk around the Chautauqua Festival, grabbed a bite to eat in town and then it was back to the hotel.  Bruce and Bobby decided to go for a quick ride with Daxton.  Here they are getting ready to pull out of the parking lot.  Terran and I took advantage of this time to clean out the RV.  Turns out the backroads of Virginia can be a bit dusty.

The parking lot was still empty when they got back so Bruce took advantage and cleaned up his bike.  I guess someone stopped by and asked him if he was setting up for some kind of show.  No such luck, I’m afraid.  When that was done we took the kids to see Monsters University.  Fun times.  Now we’re all back at the hotel.  Bobby got out the video camera and interviewed the crew.  We should have a short something for you in a day or two about our first week on the road.
