SPOUT SPRING, APPOMATTOX COUNTY, VA.  It was another short drive today, and thankfully so, since the rains have returned.  The weather has been very wet in the east this year, retarding the color change in autumn leaves.  We got pretty wet this morning (I especially) getting the motorhome and Jeep ready to travel.  We stopped for diesel fuel along US 29.  Finding truck stops in Virginia and Maryland has been difficult.  They do not advertise here as they do elsewhere, even along interstate highways.  No one seems to know why.

As we arrived at the campground, once again we donned our rain slickers, which have gotten so much use this year.  Once we got set up, Betty put some food on to cook and I took a warm shower.  Nice and warm (and dry) in here.  Tomorrow we shall visit the local attractions, including Appomattox Court House National Historical Park.
