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.....

Growing up... it never stops
I am enjoying finally growing up, but guess what, boys and girls? It NEVER STOPS!!! For the record, there is no point where everything is "solved" and fine and enlightened and fixed in perpetual harmony and light. Oh, for a while, certainly. For years at a time, even. But soon you reach the next divide, hoho, and then it's grow or die a living death. The lucky ones keep struggling and discovering, challenging themselves, no matter how old they are. Don't believe anything else. NONE OF THIS IS LIKE IT SEEMS.
