The big adventure started at 9:15 this morning. Smooth drive to far Southern VA. At Hungry Mother State Park. The name comes from a little child in the 1700’s whose father was killed by Indians and mother died of starvation after escaping with the child. Upon rescue, all the child could say was “hungry…mother”. The name stuck.
This is also on Rte 16, a famous motorcycle route called “the tail of the dragon”. On weekends, this route is popular with bikes.
