With the der Bayerische deadline this weekend it was time I got in the car to plan our Spring Tour. Especially before winter sets in. Saturday the weather was overcast and light drizzle but warm. Most of the route I have driven before but needed to add a new section to get to Washington, VA. I ended up on one road that turned to gravel. Not that I mind gravel but I was scraping my car as I went over bridges and navigated the holes. Turned around and found another road. On a positive note, Snickersville Tpke has been repaved. Made for a nice brisk ride even on snow tires.
Got to my destination, the Four and Twenty Restaurant
only to find it too small for our group. The owner told me of the Bleu Rock Inn. But first I wanted to connect Skyline Drive in the route. I continued on my way only to find a dead end after driving another 15 miles. U-turn and headed back to look for the Bleu Rock Inn. I passed the Inn of Little Washington and went in. Just a tad too expensive for a casual brunch. They also recommended the Bleu Rock Inn. So after driving 200 miles I never did find the restaurant.
Sunday I decided to retrace my journey making corrections to my route from the previous day. This time I knew where the Bleu Rock Inn was from maps.google.com. Not much on the outside but very nice inside. So after $40 worth of gas and probably another 400 miles on my odo, we have a Spring Tour.
It will be a two hour drive from Centreville to Washington, VA.

Hope people come out for our first drive of the year.
