US-50: West Virginia, Ohio 


Left the busy interstates and started following US-50 through West Virginia and Ohio. Rusty old industrial cities, fall colours, quiet roads. 

My plan is still to follow loosely US-50 unless it looks like I have to cross rocky mountains through a more southern route (I'm sure the big roads would be fine but I want to check some smaller roads, too).





I entered US-50 at Clarksburg, an old railroad town close to IS-79. The town has a nice old commercial area with old decaying buildings from the turn-of-the-century (1900..).



I still cannot get business out of my mind (being in storage business..)




Long time ago in a place far away..




Was last time open for business about 50 years ago, I think.






I'm driving through the states during the best time for fall colours.
