We hit the road around 9AM after scraping a light coating of frost off the windshield. As usual when leaving Harrisburg we were faced with the dilemma of which way do we go. The shortest distance is to head to the ring road around Washington DC, but every time we get within 25 miles of DC traffic becomes a nightmare. We opted for the slightly longer cross country route which is also slower as it is not divided highway for much of the journey and also has a 55 MPH limit vs 65 on the ring road.
In the end it worked out OK, and the scenery was quite picturesque which combined with temperatures climbing to 17°C made for a pleasant journey. We hit the main route, the I95, just before lunch having traveled through Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia.
After lunch it was back into the truck, which still had a small amount of snow in the back, to continue the journey through Virginia, North Carolina and into South Carolina. We arrived at out motel after 9½ hours of travel. Tomorrow should be a much shorter day as far as travelling is concerned.
