Charles & John Wesley preached here in America first, circa 1700.
In June we stopped in Charlotte on our way back from Florida. We went on to Wilkesboro and visited Tom (Hang Your Head Down) Dooley’s birthplace-yes he was a real person. Then off to the most pristine and beautiful Shennendoah Valley. Over the 4th of July we toured the Appomattox Court House in Virginia, Patrick Henry’s home, Woodrow Wilson’s home and Poplar Forest where Thomas Jefferson had his retreat from politics. Tom and I golfed for the first time in 2 years (he had a bum elbow.) We arrived in Hershey PA July 15th and toured the CHOCOLATE factory. We’ll stay here for a couple of weeks before heading to the Allegheny National Forest. A couple pics to look at. One from St. Simmons Island in GA where Charles & John Wesley preached the birth of the Methodist church. The one of us with beagle Princess was at our campfire at night-awesome camera I got from my friends at Continental-Thank You!
