West Point

TUE August 17, 2010

Got on the road to see how the other half lives at the Military Academy. And naturally the GPS routed me via toll roads that I love so dearly. In the first 2-hours I had paid $7.00 + $23.00 + $9.00 so I pulled off the road at a rest stop and looked at the map and plotted a course that took me north and bypassed Philadelphia and the New York vicinity and I only paid an additional $4.75 + $1.75 for the next 4-hours, it only cost me 1 more hour on the road and I hope a fist full of dollars.

Anyway I dropped the trailer at the campsite and then drove to USMA West Point and walked and looked around, a beautiful and historic place on top of a bluff overlooking the Hudson River. Our country can be proud of our Army and this place that trains its officer leaders.
