The Summer of 2012



Frank and Linda are on the move again.  The Winnebago has been checked, scanned, lifted, poked, prodded, tested, oiled, cleaned, polished, and pronounced road-worthy. 

We also did a mini "shake-down" trip to Bay Bayou Campground in Tampa ... you might remember we stayed there on our way home last year.  It is a delightful place, and we spent the day making sure all the internal organs were functioning . . . stove, refrigerator, plumbing, etc.   If you followed our trip last year, you know we had several setbacks and detours along the way.  We hope to avoid making similar memories this year.

Tomorrow we hitch up the dinghy and get back on the road in earnest.  Cue the Willie Nelson music.

First up on this year's agenda is our son's wedding in Upstate New York on June 29.  We're taking a leisurely journey north, spending some time doing genealogy research in Virginia, and then visiting Amish Country in Pennsylvania.

Frank says there is no better way to spend a Father's Day (once the kids have left home) than to be in the motorhome, heading for adventure.

What a beautiful trip and what a remarkable way to prserve it. It is great to be alive in between two eras and see your kids move successfully into the new era.

Love you. Continue to enjoy your trip
