Daleville VA to Vesuvius VA 51 miles

We decided to take on shorter days and avoid afternoon heat.  The mornings have been really comfortable.
The route today took us through Troutville, Buchanan, and Lexington.  On the way we stopped at the visitors center of the Natural Bridge, said to be one of the seven natural wonders of the world. We are Dutch therefore we declined to pay $18.00 each to see a rock formation.
The campground was about 10 miles past Lexington.  Again it had all the elements we require, grass, level, showers and electricity.   We met Dean, another rider our age and invited him to camp and have dinner with us.  He has been on the road since May and is headed to Washington, DC.  He was gone in the morning before we got up at 5:00 AM.
