Front Royal, VA

We packed up yesterday morning in complete fog and waited until it lifted somewhat before heading to Virginia. Knowing we were going to pass through the Allegheny Mountains on the way here, we weren't excited about driving in the fog. Cats screamed at us for about an hour until I realized that if I turned on the a/c and cooled it down, they might shut up - which they promptly fell asleep until getting here.

We are at the Front Royal, Virginia, camping near the entrance to the Shenandoah National Park, the most northern town of the park. This campground is something else - it's a Coast to Coast campground which means that members buy into it for a price and they are guaranteed a spot if they call within 3 days of coming. Since we aren't members, but members of Passport America, they leave 30 sites available for 'us'. We are packed in tightly, can't even park the truck with us - it's at an overflow area not far, but still. We have asked if there are any Coast sites available for us for the next 2 weeks and those are sitting right on the Shenandoah River. I hope we get to move.

Plan to go into town today to get info at the visitor's center, scope out what to do, etc.
