Day 50 ( A Travel day ) Decatur, GA - Statesville, NC 269.2 miles, New Total =  9,811.6 miles
Left the church parking lot about 9 AM and headed North.  Traveled on city streets until we reached I85 just outside Atlanta.  Traffic was still typical commuting, but luckily we were traveling the opposite way of most of the traffic.  But still after avoiding major highways on most of our trip, 6-8 lanes one way can be very intimidating!  Gassed up in Commerce, GA and continued North on I85 all the way to Charlotte.  The drive was typical interstate with only minor construction slowdowns, and Jan was at her truck counting again as it appeared to be the heaviest we had seen on the whole trip. We received a text message early this AM from my cousin Charlie in FL about Hurricane Sandy, but after some discussion we decided to stick to our earlier plan of 4 days to home from GA.  We'll check the weather channel tonight for latest updates and make any adjustments then.  We made no stops except for gas and lunch
( at Cracker Barrel again) and we arrived in our KOA in Statesville about 3:30 PM.  After completing our hookups and breaking out our camp chairs, we settled down with a cold one to review the latest weather and make our plan for the next day so we could book our reservation....wherever we were going.  It now looked like another complicating factor to the hurricane, needed to be considered.  A cold front coming in from the West & North was threatening to dump snow on the PA, NJ & NY area sometime in the late Sat. and early Sunday. So what started as a leisurely trip must end with a sprint to the finish.  We changed our plan to a (2) day completion from here to MA.  So we'll need to do just about 850 miles in (2) days. Tomorrows objective has become Pine Grove, PA and our only night in a hotel in the whole trip.  Sorry, no pictures again today.
