The wife and I have empty-nest syndrome...no kids at home anymore. 
I appreciate the heads-up on the time factor. We have 13 days driving time for our whole trip (driving from Dulles to Savannah, and back) and no real schedule for the time in between.
Since I originally posted I have thought of starting the trip at the upper end of Shenandoah National Park (at the Front Royal entrance) and driving the Skyline Drive down to its intersection with the Blue Ridge parkway. In your opinion, is it worth the extra time involved to add the Shenandoah leg?
I really want to save 2 or 3 days to do some hiking around the battlefields at The Wilderness and Spotsylvania Courthouse, so I'm working on how best to budget the time. I figure we'll stop at Manassas at the start, since the Bull Run/Manassas battlefield is one I want my wife to see.
