On Saturday, my parents and I did another Smithfield's Chicken-N-BBQ (SCNB) trip this time by stopping at the one in Nashville, NC.
We took VA 156 SB to I-95 SB into NC and took NC 48 SB to US 158 WB to pick up NC 903 so I could finish it west of Halifax. From Halifax, we took NC 125/NC 903 south to Scotland Neck (where I got confused and accidentally stayed on NC 903 due to lack of signage before turning around) where I ultimately stayed on NC 125 SB completing my clinch of it when reaching the north end of Williamston. We then took US 64 ALT to Rocky Mount to complete that clinch though we took NC 33 and Main St through Tarboro since I already had US 64 ALT there. We took US 64 BUS WB through Rocky Mount (getting gas for $2.58 at a Circle K) and split off from it at Sunset Ave following it and Eastern Ave past the still under construction I-95 interchange all the way to Nashville. During this portion of the drive, I had to stop at the Joseph A. Bank on Winstead Ave to drop off my tuxedo rental that I had to get for my friend's wedding on Friday in Richmond, VA, of which I was a groomsmen in. (I actually picked it up on Tuesday in Camp Hill, PA.)
After lunch, it was just US 64 BUS WB into Nashville to NC 58 NB to US 401 NB to US 1 NB back to Petersburg, VA, as we needed to stop at my grandparents' in Colonial Heights since my grandpa turned 87 on that day.
Clinched: NC 125, US 64 ALT (Tarboro, NC)
New Mileage: NC 903, NC 33, NC 58
EDIT (11-27-2024): Today my mom and I went on a drive through south central VA mainly to clinch VA 92 (sight clinching the closed Roanoke River Bridge and in the process learning that the replacement is under construction) and VA 344 (visiting Staunton River State Park in the process). We also looped around Burkeville clinching SR 723 (Lunenburg and Nottoway Counties) and SR 724 (Nottoway County) and sneaking in a full via sight clinch of former VA 386 (now SR 883 (Mecklenburg County). (The route in general was US 460 WB to SR 723 SB to VA 49 SB to US 360 WB to VA 92 and VA 344, and then US 360 EB to VA 92 EB to US 58 EB to I-85 NB back to my parents' house.)
