The Rusty Nail Winery

2021, Road Trip, West Virginia

What a delight to go hang out for a couple of hours in a winery knowing that the trek home is walking just a few yards to our camper. That’s just what Mike and Shelly offered us at The Rusty Nail in Martinsburg, West Virginia last night. Lucky for us they joined Harvest Hosts several months ago and they are located just off I-81, along our route from western Massachusetts to our North Carolina house, giving us a great opportunity for an overnight stay and chance to become a customer of a business we’d probably never otherwise know about. They’re a small farm winery, growing a few of their own grapes and otherwise concentrating on Niagara grapes, which we personally favor for their low tannins. It was a delightful evening of sipping various wines and of swapping stories with them as well as our fellow Harvest Hosts guests. From here we plan to overnight tonight in Wytheville then head back to the house for just a few days. We have a couple of things to do including get the new trailer registered before getting back on the road.

Burgh House Hampstead

Burgh House Hampstead

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.

Wicked The Musical

Wicked The Musical

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
