Slowly I ride out of Gettysburg stopping to see some battle sites as I leave. It is very cloudy with a cold west wind. I’m riding west and the wind is right in my face. There are a lot of ups and downs and some very steep short climbs. The steepest and longest climb today is getting up Blue Ridge Summit.







Once over the summit I am in a valley with rolling open farmland which brings me into Maryland.




I get a site at the only campground in the area, Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Campground. I don’t know why but it is the same price for me to get a full hookup RV site than a primitive tent site. So here I am in RV City but there are few and it’s quiet. I will sleep well in this cold air tonight.
