We took a short trip up to Virginia to visit Millie’s brother. We took
our regular route up thru the North Carolina
cities of Rockingham, Asheboro and Greensboro.
Our campground of choice in Martinsville was full, which took us by
surprise. Unless there is a race at the NASCAR track, there's not a lot to attract visitors to Martinsville. I think most of the campers are pipe line construction workers. Luckily, I
had phoned ahead and learned of the no vacancy, so we secured a site nearby in
Reidsville North Carolina
just below the NC/VA border.
Millie’s brother was just home from the hospital, his very
first ever admittance to a hospital! I won’t go into details but it was age
related. He’s home and doing pretty well, in spirit anyhow. Millie’s sister and
husband drove over from the western tip of Virginia, so we had a family gathering of
sorts.

Earnest said he enjoyed his hospital stay and all the people
he had to talk to. He is a happy and easy going country boy and I’m sure the
nurses and attendants all enjoyed his humor and pleasant personality.
On Thursday we drove back home to Myrtle Beach. It will be a short stay; we are
leaving this weekend for a road trip to Georgia
and Alabama.
