One More Day…

Monday, August 3, 2015

We drove 500 miles today--just one more day til we’re home!   We got up early and stopped for a good breakfast at Cracker Barrel.  (I forced myself to bypass the shopping opportunities in the lobby area.)  Shortly after breakfast, our travel buddies had a small problem, so we pulled into the rest area and filled in as the tailgunner!  Everything turned out ok, and we made it to the next campground, Woodland Campground in Woodland, PA.  There was a lot of construction and a lot of traffic. The trip today, although shorter in mileage than yesterday’s, seemed longer because of the tough drive.  The Maritimes seem to keep following us….last night there was a family in the campground from Newfoundland.  And then today we went through Newfoundland, PA! 

The scenery here isn’t quite as pretty as the Maritimes, but we saw a nice skyline as we passed through Hartford, and then crossed over the Hudson River. 

We had a nice “grandchild fix” through face-time yesterday with Benjamin and today with Taylor!  They are growing up so quickly!   We are beginning to make our mental list of “things to do”, and are very much looking forward to getting home tomorrow.
