The Road to BIO: Day 10We knew we wouldn’t make El Paso in a day, so we looked for a suitable stopover in… essentially… the middle of nowhere. We were looking to divide the mileage, and this placed us in the arid lands of West Texas. So we’ve briefly gotten to know Fort Stockton, historically a military camp and subsequent fort that grew up around Comanche Springs— one of the largest sources of spring water in the state. This morning, we’re stopping by El Paso Airport to drop off a member of our crew.
We began the workweek by turning due west after our travels down the eastern seaboard states. We’d arrived in Charleston, South Carolina for a Monday morning interview, and the city lived up to its reputation as a place of charm and southern hospitality — not to mention some beautifully preserved US history. We went to Rainbow Row — the longest cluster of Georgian row houses in the US and as the name suggests, very colorful. We also pulled the car up to The Battery on Charleston’s seafront, which was a hive of activity where we got to spend time with the locals and tourists. In fact, it’s fair to say we kicked back just a little in Charleston, which made it a late arrival in Atlanta that night.
We’ll check back in this afternoon from — New Mexico with more #RoadtoBIO updates on our journey toward #BIO2017.
