Day 29 - 8/10 - Falling Waters, WV

Monday it was time to leave Virginia to visit our former Reverend and his wife for lunch and hopefully a visit to their unique home. The drive between campgrounds was only about 60 miles, so before leaving we took a final walk around the Falling Waters Campsite to enjoy the woods and free-running cows.

Arriving early, the Falling Waters Campsite turned out to be a bit of a disappointment, it was relatively expensive with few amenities and no pull-through sites.

The lunchtime visit turned out to be a bit of an adventure as we did some unexpected sightseeing in the Middletown, MD area before finally parking and waiting for our hosts to come find us. Fortunately we had chosen to park just across the street from the country club they had planned to take us for lunch.

While the lunch was good, the tour of their home turned out to be the day’s highlight. Pete and Connie live in the custom home she designed and built with her son. The floor-to-ceiling windows look out over some beautiful countryside and create a light and airy interior.

Pete shared his love of making fishing flies and other hobbies with my parents while Connie signed a copy of one of her craft books for Vicki.
