Whether coming from the south, on the auto-train, heading down from the north, or wrapping up the Blue Ridge Parkway Tour, Day 0 is the day everyone should be arriving in Staunton, VA.

Plan on being in Staunton no later than 4pm so you can check in at the hotel, get settled, and get ready for the evening's kickoff get-together at Wright's Dairy Rite.  Wright's is a 50's style drive-in that, among other things, is know for the "Wheelie", a glazed donut covered in ice cream.

After Wright's we'll test your ice cream devotion by heading up the road to Kline's Dairy Bar. Then we'll really weed out the ice cream fanatics by heading into downtown Staunton to The Split Banana. Yep. Three shops in ONE NIGHT. Can you handle it?
