Winter Excursion 10, Day 7

We never left camp today.
One of our FROG friends stopped by and spent the morning with us, We spent the time yakking about everything you can think of. It was good to see Ron. He will be hosting in Georgia this winter for the first time. We will be anxious to hear how he likes it.
In the afternoon we played some more cards, took a walk, and watched a little TV.
The weather continues to be nice, although a little cool.
 

Winter Excursion 10, Day 6

After a great night's sleep we left camp to do a few errands. 
First stop was Wally World for a new sewer hose extension. The full hookup site we are on has the sewer dump probably 25 feet from our dump valve. In all our camping I've never seen one so far away.
Next stop was Sailors or what used to be Sailors. This has been one of our favorite grocery stores in this area, bit it is now a Weis Market! We use to stock up on all our favorite Pennsylvania food goodies. Now they didn't have any of them.
We did find a Country Store that had a few of the items we were looking for, but we came up empty on Scrapple!
Back at camp we played ort first of many cribbage games for this trip. Cath won!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 5

We got up to a beautiful day. Sunny, no rain, no wind, but a little chilly. We were on the road by 0930. The drive was nice. Many parts of I-81 have been recently paved, but some areas are the same old lousy interstate!
We arrived at Caledonia State Park around 1430 and were all set up by 1530. With the time change it starts to get dark by 1630. We will be here for six days.

Winter Excursion 10, Day 4

At least the wind finally stopped mid-day and with it the rain. It was nice to see the sun again. The forecast for the rest of the week looks good, 60s & 40s with no rain. 
We did a little camp maintenance and watched a movie. We ran a few errands and Cath got her A&W Root Beer Float fix.
As is the tradition for our last night in a campground we got some really good pizza from a local Mom and Pop Pizza Joint.
Tomorrow we are off to a campground we have not stayed at before near Chambersburg, PA.

Winter Excursion 10, Day 3

It rained hard all night and then all day. The wind gusted to almost 50 mph. It was a raw, cold, and wet day. We stayed hunkered down in the camper.
Some of our Camping Friends came over in the afternoon. It is always good to see Chris & Jean. We spent most of the afternoon yakking and catching up on news. Cath made the perfect meal for dinner, Chicken and Dumplings. With this weather it was a welcome meal. It warmed our innards!
We watched a few shows and then hit the rack. The wind was still kicking!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 2

We definitely made the right decision to leave a day early. The weather here today was horrible! It rained all day, temps stayed in the low 40s, and the wind never quit. The low clouds made it even drearier. It would not have been a fun travel day.
We made a quick trip to Wally World for a few supplies, but spent almost the entire day in the camper watching TV.
I guess the bright side is with all the wind and rain we got a free truck wash!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 1

It's hard to believe this is Winter Excursion 10!
It is actually Day -1. We left home a day early to avoid the wind and rain forecast for tomorrow.
We made it to our first stop at Cortland, NY with no issues. Last night the rain started around 0200 and is still continuing all day. The wind is gusting near 25 mph.
We are at Greek Peak Campground. We stayed here last year for a few days. It is a good first day stopping place. It is only 120 miles from home. We will stay here four nights so we can visit some camping friends that live in the area.
It is good to be back on the road again. As always we are looking forward to this year's trip.
All is well in the Boss Camp!
