Oops!

Nuts! Forgot to get something at our friends house before we left. I did not discover it until after lunch 30 minutes away and was ready to hook up the car. I had to drive back to Bethel and pick it up. So we lost about an hour of travel time today. However, we did go about the same distance we had planned. Now we are in South Williamsport, PA at the Nittany Mountain KOA for the night.

Thanks, Danbury! California Here We Come!

We had a great week in Danbury. Caught up on some doctor appointments - Ellyn's semi-annual bloodwork was great and she got another shot of artificial cartilage into her trick knee. Our dear friend (and Rabbi) Lynne was visiting Danbury from Dothan, AL with her husband and it was almost like old times to attend Shabbat services with them and our other UJC friends. Ellyn had a great Rosh Hodesh Group outing on Mindy's boat - so glad the lightning almost held off 'til we were back on the dock. While, Geoff hung out with Jim and Rob. We had a wonderful dinner at Patti's and Gerry's and it was so wonderful to be parked (and neighbors for a week) at Debbi's and Peter's. They were terrifically gracious about welcoming our RV to their driveway and we greatly enjoyed their new shower!

And now the time has come for us to start our big trek to California. Our target is to be in the SF Bay Area on September 2nd. In the meantime, we are excited to be seeing many sights, having many experiences, and visiting with many long-time (and some new) friends. This entire journey, including wintering in the south is scheduled to end up with return to the Northeast for Passover. It should be really something special to be on the road (yet still be in our home) for that long. We really appreciate the support from our friends and family. We look forward to you keeping in touch and keeping us up-to-date with what's happening in your lives while we're on our journey!
