Snowbirds Cross the Mountains-Day Two

The roads through the “Mountain State” (WV) were extremely slippery today. We discovered the importance of the sign Watch for Ice on Bridge. Tom did a fantastic job keeping the truck and trailer (mostly) between the white lines but it was white knuckle for about 5 hrs today. The temp was -6 with a steady icy mist going through the mountains so I am so glad we came through unscathed. When we passed through the last tunnel in Virginia and started down that steep hill into North Carolina the sun came out and we donned our sunglasses. As we continued south we watched the temperatures go from minus to positive and finally the wet salty roads were thankfully behind us. We stopped at Orangeburg, SC for the night and will head into Florida tomorrow.
