Today we left home base in New Jersey for West Virginia: Wild, Wonderful.
​
Neither of us had ever been before so it was definitely an adventurous day 1. We took 78 west to 81 and traveled through Pennsylvania and Maryland. Today was our longest traveling day at about 7.5 hours total. Overall, it was a great day. The views were beautiful and we could not have lucked out more with the weather.

It was wayyyy over priced for what you got
The building was being worked on at night, making it hard to sleep
