Day 11 – Yorktown, Virginia

Killing time a little time. Slainte'

Killing time a little time. Slainte’

My ride today was a slab ride.  When you get closer to the big cities you just have to be on the slab or you’re going to be fighting traffic on surface streets.  I might have been able to figure out a route that would mostly keep me out of the cities but I was really just over it and wanted to get to Yorktown (near Norfolk) and see my friends.  Additionally, taking the freeway allowed me to start later in the day – which was important because it was an electric clothes day even when I left at 10:00.  When I got here I stopped at Buffalo Wild Wings and bought myself a reward while I waited for my buddy to get off work.  It’s been a long time since I had one of these & it sure tasted good; the second one was even better.Spagetti-Dinner-300x200

I left Buffalo Wild Wings after a nice visit with Don & Judy and headed for Kim’s house.  Spaghetti dinner with Kim, her son Lowell, grandson Ryan, and son-in-law, Bill.  Fresh strawberries, home made shortcake, and cream for desert – good friends, great food.
