Road Trip: Day 7

Louisville, Kentucky - Durham, North Carolina



Start time: 8:45 a.m. EST

The final leg of the trip was pretty uneventful, as we were both tired of driving and anxious to just get to Durham. We barreled through Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia and North Carolina and we both agreed that it's a beautiful part of the country. Lots of rolling hills that are packed with trees — even more than we're used to in the Northwest! We crossed into North Carolina at about 4 p.m. and stopped at the state visitor's center where there was a display case for a local artist that apparently specializes in gnomes. My kind of guy! We checked into our hotel, where we'll be staying for the next few days while I find a place to live. Conveniently, the hotel is only about 3 minutes from the Baseball America office, so getting to work on the first day will be a breeze. Cheryl was also super excited that Boston Market still exists out here and we had dinner there after we checked into the hotel.
