New Post...

After purchasing a new laptop and a different photo editing program I'm finally "back in the saddle"... so to speak.  So here's a massive catch-up attempt from my last travel post while in Maine, in early August, to now in Ohio, post-Christmas.

BIG BREATH

We left Grand Isle for 2 Knights Brewery, a Harvest Host site.

The owner likes to tell the town's history every night.  Two Knights Brewery is named in honor of the two Sangerville Maine-born men that went on to be Knighted by the royal family of England.

The next day we traveled to Bragg Farm Sugar House in East Montpelier, Vermont.  I found a tasty syrup I tried in my baked bean recipe. :)

Here's our next stop the following day at Cooperstown and Charlotte Valley Railroad, a Harvest Host in Milford, NY.

After 1 night in Milford we stopped at a casino in Graniteville, PA.

We then stopped for over a week at Robert W Craig CG, a COE park in Keiser, WV.  This was a nice break from the 1 nighters and the weather was great!

More local wildlife...below :)

For you, Connie.

One night at a Mardi Gras Casino parking lot next to a rig that could hold hold our entire rig in its trailer!

Another week stay. This one at Cumberland Point COE in Nancy, KY.

Birds were always checking out my cooking.  Wendy hinted that my cooking is for the birds!!!

One of my favorites...a Chevy towing a Ford.  My brother, Don, would have appreciated this one :)

Rounding out August was our stay at Pitchers Paradise, a Boondockers Welcome in Lowbelville, TN.

An open house display of an RV in town...REALLY?...an upstairs?

The beginning of September found us in Mississippi at Tunica Resorts...again.  This is almost a home away from home for us :)

Glad we weren't golfing this day.  I might have mistaken this for a golf ball :)

We went back to the mother ship in Hohenwald, TN for our annual trailer maintenance checkup.  We stayed again with Melissa (owner) at Meriwether's Retreat B&B.

While we were at the service department waiting on the finishing touches Wendy felt and heard a soft pop in her pocket.  She had a small flashlight in her pocket and one of its batteries exploded.  Glad it didn't catch fire!

After Hohenwald, we traveled back to Tunica for a night before heading on to Edgewood CG, a COE park in Bismarck, AR. 

It was a very relaxing stay by DeGray Lake.

Here we are for 1 night at a Boondockers Welcome site (Howell's Acres) in Van, TX.  The owner restores classic motorcycles.

Live Oakridge COE in Belton, TX.

We stayed a few days at San Angelo State Park.

This is a boat ramp to nowhere...severe drought has had a grip for a long time.

Tucked away in our cubbyhole for our annual Javelina Roundup gathering at Davis Mountain SP in Ft Davis, TX.  Again....not a Javelina in sight for the entire stay :( 

Nearby MacDonald Observatory offers nice views during their nightly star parties.

You've got to watch your step on this trail!

Wild, native watermelons?........NOT!

Our host, Frank, organizes and leads our rally each year.  We greatly appreciate his efforts!

Here are a few pictures of our daily breakfasts...

Of Frank's many talents, writing and reciting cowboy poems proves to be a crowd pleaser.

Next week we'll finish up with the rest of this year.  Currently we're in Ohio enjoying Christmas with Wendy's family :)
