Dump to dump to dump to dump to dump
Phew, I made it! To West Virginia, where the rest areas along I64 and I79 have dump stations. I'm not desperate yet but I'll need to find a dump station soon and it will be much more convenient to dump at a rest area than to digress from my travels to hunt one up. I don't remember the exact sequence but at the first 4 rest areas I stopped at the dump stations were either non-existent, closed, or located where I found myself irretrievably in the wrong lane before I spotted them. This morning I finally got it all figured out and dumped at the rest area on I79 just north of Clarksburg WV, my last chance.
Now to find a laundromat.....

Inflection Points
I'm convinced we're at one of those rare historic inflection points, where the formerly reliable center can't hold and, without the benefit of our imminent history, we flail around wondering why our life isn't as stable as we think our parents' was.
