Old Dominion, RoVA Edition

We’re safely in Roanoke VA, 200+ miles from home. In RoVA1, not NoVA2

It’s amazing to me that one state can encompass salt-of-the-earth common folk, and the effetely pretentious ones to whom we drive tomorrow. Whatever. Faithful Cat will be glad to see us, when we get there.

On the Search for America Tour, Economy Run Division, the average mpg for our fire breathing Cadillac Capitalist Car has risen to 19.6. Our average on this trip is 1903.3 miles/81.9 gallons = 23.23+ mpg. These calculations are important; we have the “bring it back empty” option on the Avis3 rental, so adding enough, though not too much, petrol is my assignment for tomorrow. After a decent Cracker Barrel breakfast, that is.

1 Rest of Virginia, not where we live.

2 Northern Virginia, home of the type A yuppie douchebags, where we currently live.

3 The Official Car Rental Company of the Search for America Tour.
