We departed Front Royal, VA, headed for Gettysburg, PA. We started out going north on Hwy 340 and followed it through West Virginia and Maryland before entering Pennsylvania. On 340 you get to pass through 4 states in less than 60 miles and somewhere along the way we got off on Hwy 15, then 30 and ultimately turned on 194 to our campground called Gettysburg Farm which is actually some distance from Gettysburg in East Berlin, PA. Not the East Berlin in Germany. This East Berlin has no big wall but lots of the businesses around here have names that sound Dutch or German although, as far as we can tell, they speak English.
Shortly after we arrived and got the Invader set up, we decided to take a little spin around the area. This may not have been the best time since almost before we left the park it started raining and it was definitely open for business. The edges of all the roads we drove on were flooded at the edge and some sections had red / brown rivers of recently plowed soil running through the road. Charlotte would be covered with muddy goo driving through the red glop and almost immediately get all squeaky clean about two minutes later from the torrential rain. We kept our exploration fairly short and went back to the Invader for porter and whiskey because either it was too nasty for driving or we were thirsty. You choose.
