South From Washington D.C.

Heading South from D.C. on I-95, we transitioned to I-85 (the GPS was working wonderfully) and headed to Winston-Salem, about 1/2 way to Atlanta. GPS screwed up royally in Durham, where a new interchange had been built, but we finally got to Old Salem. GPS took us directly to the Augustus T Zevely Inn, a 200-year-old brick B&B.

Checking in violated my "First Rule of Hotels", but we made it. Breathing hard after the exercise was made easy by the rocking chairs on the porch. Nice



Our fellow guests were mostly retired wealthy folks, from Alabama and the U.K., chortling over how they were "spending our childrens' inheritance." Oh well, the food was pretty good, except for the fried green tomatoes.



The shrimp and grits, on the other hand, were great!
