We left Machicomoco and headed up Route 17 through the Northern Neck. It was time to visit our old home area. We stayed at Ft. AP Hill in their rv park. We had a great end site and except for the periodic training exercises, it was quiet. Even the training exercise noises weren't that bad.
We noted some new construction in the Dahlgren area. Hey, the new Nice Bridge is completed. It wasn't even started when we left the area in April 2020. We opted not to cross it but did drive to a viewpoint to take a look.
We got in the area on a Saturday and headed to our former church, New Life in Christ, early on Sunday. They have two services now, and we hear there are plans for a balcony section. It's good to see growing churches.
Afterwards we drove through our old neighborhood. We didn't see too many outward changes to our former home. We did see the backyard fence that former neighbors told us had been added. We had hoped to visit a few folks, but schedules didn't work out.
We did see several friends and former co-workers and enjoyed catching up. The bonus was the beautiful fall weather and trees! However at the end of the week, we realized that we really hadn't taken many photos. Oops!
