Big Walker Mountain - Part 1

March 2007 -- on our way to West Virginia for several days of west 'n' wewaxation (huhuhuhuhuhuh!). The best-laid plans of mice, men and interstates go astray.

I hope you are actually able to make a video

of you going through Big Walker Mountain

Tunnel someday.

I have not one but two -- one from 2006 (our first trip down I-77) and the one we took earlier this year. I just haven't gotten 'round to doing ripping 'n' posting.

You should buy a CB radio. I have missed many traffic jams by just listening. Oh, no an illegal turn! (which I have done). Good driving video.

Yeah, I've thought a time or two about making that investment .... I'm told it's also quite handy for being forewarned about police radar (especially in a place like Va., where detectors are verboten).

Thanks for the comment ... I look forward to seeing some of your own roadtrip videos. I love watching those.

Oh yes, I remember this day. From Ohio to virginia for a reunion. Old RT. 52 senic view up the mountain was the way to go.

I have to put Walker Mtn on my list of places to drive. Somehow I have managed to miss that one. I look forward to seeing your next road trip vids. vbd
