Danville and the Tank Museum


Day 8
June 14, 2019
Off we go to Danville VA to visit the Tank Museum.  Set the GPS for the fastest route which normally would be nice roads but for the first 40 miles we were twisting and winding over some very narrow mountain roads; no guardrails, no paint, the only signs were the ones warning of switchbacks and twisties as we climbed up and over the mountains.  Todd was a bit nervous and Don was getting sick.  Finally, we got to 52 which is a nice dual highway.  The tank museum is very large; in fact, it is the largest single, privately owned stock of weapons in the whole United States.  I think Todd found it interesting.  After a couple of hours walking around and taking pictures we headed for lunch and then our hotel.  Very nice Comfort Inn and Suites.  We’re all getting tired and ready to head home tomorrow. We plan to leave early and make a stop in Gordonsville to the grave and then drive home; 364 miles. It’s been a nice vacation.
