New York

Proof positive we went to New York. We ate at Lombardi's, the first pizza parlar to open in the US in 1905. Pizza was excellent, now we gotta go back to try a bagel and a Coney Island hot dog.

In Virginia

Here we are behind our friends Jim & Carol, leaving North Carolina heading for Virginia. They will split from us at Richmond and we will see them again when we move to New Jersey in a few weeks.

While in North Carolina, I took my motorcycle and rode the tail of the dragon, whew, what a ride.

In Virginia, I was out for a ride and spotted this parked on the side of the road, a Texas sized cooker. So I stopped and found the Something Different General Store, They roast their own coffee as well as peanuts and almonds, they also make some wonderful BBQ Dan, the owner tells us all about it. Coffee anyone?? Look closely, the cream is served in little milk jars. And don't forget, it is a general store in case you get the craving to shop. Dan told us it's not a restaurant, but they do have 5 stools at a bar where you can order food and eat. And it is excellent, just about the best BBQ we have ever had. If your ever in Pine Tree, Va stop in and enjoy.
