Good Morning - the day has finally arrived for me to leave the northeast to live out my dream. I have been calling it D-day. My departure this morning is a culmination of many years of planning and dreaming of traveling around our great country to see what is over the next hill.
I was awake at 2AM and made myself stay in bed until 3 and that was as long as I could stand it. Up with coffee in hand I filled my wonderful claw foot tub for the last time this year anyway. I have truly treasured the hours I have just spend soaking in that tub and I know it will be a long time before I get to do it again.
Packed up the last of the " I HAVE TO HAVE" things now will have to spend time putting or I should say finding places to put them away. I left home at 7:20 and arrived in PA 2PM. Put on 256 miles today. I was ready to call it a day having only had about 3 1/2 hours sleep last night.
All in all it was a good and bad day. Somewhere I lost my bicycle. We thought we had it secure in the bike rake, but alas it was not. I have no idea where it ended up but appears to have come loose from the rack. LUCKILY IT WAS USED AND NOT AN EXPENSIVE NEW ONE!! But still I liked it because it was just a 5 speed and only had rear brakes on the handlebar so there was no danger of sending me over the handlebars. LOL Ya gotta remember I am an old lady and hadn't been on a bike in over 30 years. No new fangled one for me. AND IT WAS PINK :-((((
We are set up at Outdoor World Timothy Lake campground in East Stroudsburg, PA until Friday when we move down to Lancaster for 13 days. Tomorrow I plan to hike up to Bushkill Falls so will have some pictures to share of them. There are a series of 8 water falls and we can walk along and over them so it should be a good day and Duncan can go with me so that is a plus. He definitely does not like to be left alone in the camper which could be a problem he will have to get used to when I start working at Quail Run.
I am done in for today and hopefully I can stay awake long enough to get a good night sleep and not be up running around all night again. Gonna take Duncan for a walk and wear us both out completely. He has been a sleep all day and absolutely no conversationalist at all today other than to bark at other dogs he saw.
Until next time.............

Sorry about the bike Debs but at least it didn't fly off and hit someone following you....at least as far as you know. I headed out in my RV today too but it is just a very long, long weekend trip. Guess I better get on my blog tonight too. Hope you sleep well tonight. You made it through the first day so the rest of it is a piece of cake.
