The way it looks I will be going out there for a couple weeks to work on a few machines. I there anything to do in the area or places a guy should eat? I can't take a rifle because of a company vehicle.
 
I will try to check out a few bbq joints. I don't smoke cigars but I'm going to have to try to check that place out after looking it up. I worked in Eden about 10 years ago but didn't have time to check the area out.
 

My wife and I went there when I was in Danville for about 7 months on a pipeline. It is pretty impressive seeing all the different tanks and guns. I really enjoyed it. My wife got to see some of the old civil war stuff up by Lynchburg, VA when we were up there for part of the job. I would love to move out to Virginia, I really enjoyed it and met some great people.

If you haven't already, hit up Guilford Courthouse National Military Park. It was a significant battle in the Revolutionary War where our forefathers slaughtered a quarter of Cornwallis' troops he brought to the battle that day. It's not one of the famous battles of the war, but was very significant in dwindling the red coat numbers and good reason the victory at Yorktown happened when it did seven months later.


I definitely don't miss that area, the I-40 corridor is a death trap.

I will check that out if we get a rain day. I'm working where I40 and I73 meet, I figured out real quick why they guys are grinding the highway at night in this area.

If that bothers you stay off the longest parking lot on the east coast, I 95 between Richmond and DC.
