Thanks, it was an excellent trip! And yes, this is a usual stop. The
food and service are excellent, and it's almost exactly half way.
It's not open on Monday's or we'd have stopped on the way back as
well. (For anyone interested, this is the Colonial Restaurant, just
to the south of Lynchburg, VA on Rt. 29.)
