Evacuation

About noon today we had a knock on our door, it was one of the people from the campground and he said we had until 4PM to evacuate. With all the trees they were concerned about the forcasted high winds and rain accompanying Hurricane Irene. So by about 1 PM we were on our way west on Rt 30. We had some light rain but not to bad At Chambersburg, PA we turned south on I-81. Driving south on I-81 as we entered WestVirginia after passing through the pan handle of Maryland we had a few periods of very heavy rain. At about 6:30 we stopped at the Shenandoah Valley KOA near Verona, VA for the night. We arrived here in light rain but it seems to have quit now. We have decided our destination now will be Sebring, FL. We should arrive there in about 3 days. Hopefully there won't be any hurricanes come near there this fall.

Glad to know you're safe and I see that you are heading for home. It's nice to be flexible! Safe journey. Other than the Amish dryer is there anything else you want from Lancaster County.
