Moving on Down the Road....catching up sometime....?
We left Maine Sunday July 8 after 19 fun-filled days! We have much to share about those 19 days: visiting friends after 36 plus years....playing ball on the beach with the dogs early in the mornings....visiting Maine scenic sights....and eating lobster: lobster rolls, lobster tails....crab salad...and did we mention lobster?!
We traveled almost due west across Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and into New York. The country was very different from New Hampshire through Vermont, with Vermont more mountainous and twisty, curvy roads--then we entered "civilization" as we drove across New York...and had to pay tolls to do so--over $50!!!! The view "opened up" as well--less mountains. In Ohio, we encountered farm land--fields of corn mostly. We currently are near Blanchester, where Mike's dad was born. We have visited a couple of cemeteries and taken pictures to share of the Irvin clan!
On our stops the Bitty and Rupert show attracted a following, as usual! Little kids Bitty finds on her own, as she loves them, licking them when they sit down by her. Rupert is a little shy, but eventually wiggles up to them for a pat on the head.
Here is our route:

A. Saco/Old Orchard Beach KOA, Saco,ME
B. Arrowhead Marina & RV Park, Glenville, NY (nice park--on Mohawk River, the Erie Canal area!
C. Southwoods RV Resort, Byron, NY
D. Heritage Hills Campground, Thompson, OH Interesting park! Two miles gravel road to get to it...we had full hookups, around large meadow where dogs played ball...an o-kay place for one night....
E. Beechwood Acres Camping, south and west of Wilmington, OH. It is near Blanchester where Mike's dad was born. So we've been exploring and researching the Irvin clan!
We WILL be updating with info and pictures of our visits! Lindy especially enjoyed connecting with a friend from Aurora University--45 years...!
Later!
Roving Riders (all four of us!)

Great to hear from you guys, how hot has it been?
ReplyDeleteNot real hot--in the mid 80's sometimes. Muggy. We ran the ac a couple of times off the gen so we would be "cool" setting up... Some of our sites have presented leveling challenges! We've really had it nice, by weather standards. No really hot days like the mid west (where we will be!).
