I did that drive when we moved across, my first three days were from Philly down to Jamestown, then across VA to Staunton (pronounced "Stanton" - I kept running into towns pronounced completely different from their spelling) and from there to Morehead KY. Both stops had good friends named Bob - Bob Pastorio in Staunton (sadly passed a couple years ago, he has visited me in my dreams since to help with building my communal cooking compound, because he's a chef that's why) and Appalachian Folklorist, author and historian Bob Sloan in Morehead. That's where I first drank 'shine out of a mason jar, and learned what Shakespearean English sounds like for real. Darned hillbillies.

I look forward to reading of your stops. :)
