Deeper Yet

SG and I had a great breakfast this morning at Bright Morning Inn in Davis, WV -- I had the Banana Dream French Toast and SG had toast and sausage; nothing with eggs for her still. We took a short walk around town - no walk around town would take very long anyway. Then, we headed to Canaan Valley proper where we got a Beat the Heat special room at Canaan Valley Resort for $70 or so. The room is not spectacular; as a matter of fact it reeks of old cigarette smoke, but the staff has been apologetic and came to spray something, and I figure I can't really complain too much with such a great price and a last minute grab like that. Of course, SG wanted to swim, so we have spent quite a bit of time at the indoor pool. We tried the outdoor pool but the heater is broken; it was way too cold, especially with only about 80 degree weather. We had lunch at Big John's Family Fixins restaurant (pretty decent) and then headed down south to beautiful Seneca Rocks. My dear four year old was only impressed for a short while; we quickly headed back to the pool. We ate dinner in the resort's Hickory Dining Room, which was a nice buffet - they served wine too. The view from the dining room was spectacular. Now, too early for partying girls like ourselves, we are crashing in front of the tv (which the Inn didn't have for us in our room) watching too many episodes of iCarly. I hear that the deer will walk right up to guests at dusk around here, but I don't think this kid can handle that much drama tonight. We have a long ride back to 'civilization' tomorrow.
