On the road again Nov 2010

Hello loyal followers,

Here we are again, this time mostly southern trekking. We spent a glorious week in Myrtle Beach (actually in Surfside Beach) after a slow start with a tooth emergency. Still made it to our destination of Gettysburg with a 4 hr late start. Yay. Weather is really great. Thinking we should stay a few more days next time. So much to see there.

We are now in a paradise called Hilton Head Harbor RV Resort. It is one of the nicest parks I have ever seen. Landscaping is awesome.

Chillin' in Bar Harbor Maine

Sept 12, 2011

We finally got to Maine after a horrendous trip. We spent a night in New Hampshire at a cute little campground that was up the hill and down the dirt road. Got in there after a turn down the "wrong" dirt road (dead end) mind you. We spent a nice night in Colebrook, NH. Gorgeous view of the mountains and the valley. Nice folks that own it. Got off to a great start in the morning but then.....got down to the end of the dirt road and found out too late we couldn't turn left on to the highway. Got the rig across two lanes and found we were hovering over a huge gully. Well, we stopped all traffic going both ways and I panicked.....poor Bob, and the way the car was turned we couldn't take the car off so we could back up.  luckily the both lanes and the dirt road people we held up for a half and hour were so nice. One guy said "don't worry we're really laid back here". Then we finally got back on track and the ride thru New Hampshire was really rough...bad roads and steep hills. OMG!!!!! Shook the liver out of the coach, my cupboards were a mess.

Now we are in Bar Harbor and the weather has been just perfect. So far we have had a lobster both days. Yum!!!!We are getting pretty good at tearing into them. I felt sorry for the poor thing the first day but he was yummy and I got over that when he was doused in butter (lol).

Going on a whale watch today as this will be the warmest day. Camp resort is really nice and people are great. Narrows Too it is called.

Here with Howie and Sandy Pitt. We are all having a great time. Learned a new card game called "bitchin rummy".  Fun and easy....two of my favorite things!!!!!

Let me go back a few days before I forget. We left Webster on Labor Day and stayed a couple of nights at Kring Pt....it was awesome...perfect weather and a sunset to kill for. I have never seen anything sooo gorgeous. Check it out on my facebook page. I will post pics here when my computer expert gives me a lesson. Yes, my darling baby boy......that would be you. oxoxoxo.

Anyhoo, then we spent 2 nights at Coles Creek near Massena. Two more gorgeous days and some fun at the casino. Weather was perfect.

Now we are up to date. As for cards we are even steven as far as the girls and boys go. Having a great time here in BH...our next stop is Wells Maine for a week. Then Cape Cod.

Our meal plan (WW) isn't up to par as we found an ice cream place and have had a cone 2 days in a row .......bad behavior for sure but think we are in our points range...just not the right kinds of points for sure. I am sure we have had too many ice cream and butter points. We need you Louann. The piper will have to be paid..

Found a Calvary Chapel 4 mi down the road.....went yesterday (9/11) so glad we did.. great service and prayed for all. Missing the boy something fierce. It was a tough day. But with support from friends and my sis, feel blessed to have so many wonderful people in my life.

So thats all the news for now.......have a great day and don't forget to count your blessings,  live each day to be the best of yourself. Now off to find another lobster ; ) <3 <3 dt
