Historic Eastern Seaboard Days 19 and 20

Day 19 we had a nice restful day, everyone kind of stayed around the campground and just relaxed.  Some went out shopping, others did wash and some of us just tinkered around.  At 6:00 PM we loaded the bus for a night drive through Washington DC, this was an extra trip.  Here are some of the pictures that turned out.
