We are hopefully going to start the NW section this week. So we decided to start near Hotel Roanoke. Parked on Jefferson St in KKs new Jeep (borrowed) and hit Gilmer. Hit 2nd St and walked behind the Civic Center area. Finally passed KKs place of employment. My pedometer kept on falling off my foot due to it being broken anyways. We decided to address the situation about Johns steps/miles being more than mine. We did a stride test and mine was about 8 steps off while Johns was about 12 extra steps off. I will have to get a new one today sometime.



The area



Near the Civic Center



Walked by and visited the St. Andrews Church. Nice piece of architecture. Saw a few kids playing around in the field and took a few pics of the church and views.

St. Andrews



Nice View



Headed on down to Patton Ave and checked out the Gainsboro Library. Ive always liked this place. Very neat as well. We checked out the new "Garden" in the back and took a little break. Also visited the creepy Claytor Medical Clinic.

Inside the CMC



Continued our walk towards Hotel Roanoke and the O Winston Museum. Very nice areas. Walked by the N&W apartments. Discussing about living here and John walked into some friends that worked with him back in the day.

Hotel Roanoke



Johns buds.

Hit Henry St and saw the Lincoln Theater. I need to find out what this place is. Its next to the Dumas Center and some cooking school. Continued back to Jefferson and headed back to the jeep.
