No Earl, but hot!

We stuck it out at the RV yesterday, watching the waves of clouds come in from Hurricane Earl. It did get to 100, too hot for us. No rain, did get some wind. Tomorrow is supposed to be very windy from the back side of Earl going up the coast. Strange thing is today the sky is very, very overcast, Earl is due east of us out in the ocean. Can't see the Shenandoah from the RV like you can on all other days, too hazy. We thought the campground would get pretty busy when in fact it is very desolate here. The worker-bee guy Ed who is next to us said that this Earl probably scared away alot of folks, although this weekend is supposed to be wonderful - temps in the 70's. Yeah!

Today we were going to go back to the Shenandoah but since you can't see the mountains from the campground like normal, we figured we couldn't see looking down from the top of Skyline Drive. So, instead we probably will go to Cedar Creek National Battlefield and Belle Grove Plantation about 10 miles from here. We have steered clear of battlefields, but for some reason - I haven't researched it - this battle has made a National park. So, we'll go.
