Tonight is our last night at Greenbrier, at least that’s the way it is planned. We are still waiting for one of Lori’s prescriptions to show up at general delivery. If it doesn’t show up tomorrow we will probably sortie over to the Hagerstown KOA. Greenbrier has let us know we do not have to be out until Wednesday (10/31). However, I know they are anxious to get the water secured do to the below normal temperatures and our leaving would help them speed it up. We could also disconnect and dry camp here but I’d prefer to stay on utilities since Assateague will put a strain on the batteries for a couple of weeks.. We were going to hold on to our issued equipment until Monday morning, especially since the host in the adjacent loop is a a single woman and she was concerned about being in the park alone. When she decided to turn in her gear tonight we followed suit. So tomorrow we will get the Flagstaff set to go on the road before we head to the Boonsboro Post Office. If Lori’s prescriptions are in we’ll hook up and head to Assateague – if not we’ll decide on plan B.
Since this is ‘breaking camp day’ we go out to dinner. We have been eyeing Mountain Gate Family Restaurant. This is a huge place that accommodates tourist busses. There is a regular menu and a buffet that includes pork roast, roast, turkey, roast beef, and sirloin steak. We both decided on the buffet. You know you are in the south when you get to the dressing end of the salad bar and one of them is labeled ‘bacon’ – while not something I’d get all the time it was good.
The other unusual thing about the restaurant was that the place mats had four versions of Grace on them. The buffet selections were diverse, though not always labeled but everything I got in three trips through the line was good.
