Day 22 - New River Gorge, Kanawha Falls, Glen Ferris Hydroelectric Facility and Richwood!

We spent the night in the parking lot at Tamarack.  When we pulled in there was another Roadtrek CS Adventurous just like ours.  We parked in front of it, it made such a wonderful sight to see them both there.  In the morning we met the people in the other Roadtrek, there are nice folks.  They invited us to see their RV and we showed them ours.  It is always interesting to see how someone else sets up the same motor home to have it suit them.

We parted ways and headed back to the highway, Richwood, WV will be home for the night.  

First stop along our way, Canyon Rim Visitor Center in Lansing, WV.  From here we had a great view of the New River Gorge and the New River Gorge Bridge.  












We stopped for lunch at Gino's Pizza & Spaghetti House in Gauley Bridge, WV.  We left Spike in the RV with the AC on, the four AGM batteries have been doing a good job so far of running the AC for about an hour at a time.  We also stopped along the Kanawha River and had a view of the Kanawha Falls and the Glen Ferris Hydroelectric facility










We made it to Richwood at 4:38 pm and pulled into the Chamber of Commerce parking lot.  Debra had made plans with them to let us park there overnight, and it was a great location, just one block from the main intersection in down town.  We walked across the street and ate dinner at the Oakford Diner, we had some ramps with the meal.  Ramps are a kind of wild onion, and are very special to the folks in this area of West Virginia.
