I really dont recommend visiting the Cape Charles area. We came down for this "off the beaten path" trip from New York, hoping to be pleasantly surprised. But there's a number of phony speed traps (especially around Eastville) targeting out-of-towners. I was 100% driving normal and the speed of traffic (which was about 10mph over the signs) - it was a busy day on the road and I was surrounded by other cars and couldn't even have sped faster (or slowed down) than traffic if I wanted to.

Absolutely do not recommend, drove by and decided to stop in without knowing opening and closing times but the sign said open and it was appr. 3.45 in the afternoon. Walked around the domated Bloxom station first and if I had donated that building I'd be disgusted. At least keep the outside clean and nice. Soon as we starting walking around a guy came out of the main building and changed the open sign to closed. If he had any decency he would have walked over to us to say that they would be closing soon but no, he just disappeared back in the building. So we just left and will therefore...
