3 May 2020 Angel Oak Tree

With the state allowing some stores to reopen with limited numbers of customers, we went to the nearby Mall and found the LensCrafters store open for business! So we picked out some new frames and order our new glasses. Since we figure we are stuck here until at least the middle of the month, we decided it would be our only opportunity. There were only two or three other stores open in the mall. It was strange walking through the mall with all the closed stores and wearing a mask. After ordering our glasses, we decided to go check out the Angel Oak Tree. A large Oak tree not too far from our RV Park, it is estimated to be over 500 years old. The park around the tree was still closed, but we could see the tree through the fence. The trunk was massive with huge branches going off in every direction, dipping down onto the ground, or even under it, before surging back up. It is magnificent!

We decided to cancel all out reservations through the middle of June. It is obvious that the northeast corridor is going to be closed for quite a while and will open slowly. So once the NP begin to reopen, we plan to head west to Tennessee then up into Kentucky and Ohio before cutting across the west end of New York, assuming that area will open before the area around New York City. Then on to Maine. We will have to wait and see what the Northeast corridor does to determine if we will come back through that area. So we have started plotting out stops, RV parks and NP to visit. But we won’t make reservations until we see the NP begin to open in those states.
