We are in Owego, NY, visiting Vera's sister Susie. We stayed one night in a beautiful campground on a hillside, in a big meadow .... all by ourselves. They didn't appear to have any other "transient" campers (only a handful of apparent full timers) .... so they escorted us up a rather steep hillside to "the field". It was beautiful, but the getting up there and down again gave me a good cupful of stress.
Then we moved several miles over to Endicott to Pine Valley campground set around a small lake. Beautiful! We immediately signed up for a week here... and we may extend it. Vera has spent a couple of nights over at her sisters ... so Charlie and I and the dogs are really enjoying just 'settin' by the lake.
Before this stop, we spent a couple of days camping near a friend and former co-worker of Vera's down in north central Pennsylvania.
Then the next nite in Troy, PA .... where Vera grew up; and visited with one of her high school friends. They invited us to stay in their guest cottage next door to them on a small lake out in the country. It was wonderful. We parked the motorhome next to the horse barn .... such a deal!
We have decided to slow down a little and stay longer at some places .... the monthly diesel gas budget gets slammed pretty quick if you travel every day.
We have discussed maybe not trying to make it to Nova Scotia this trip ..... we are notorious for biting off chunks that are too big. If we slow down we usually enjoy it more anyway.
Pennsylvania (especially western) is just breathtaking. Such lush, green hills and beautiful farmland. This of course, is the height of corn season, so you see corn plots all over the distant hills.
More later, Marilyn
