HOME FOR AWHILE

 we arrive back in ithaca sept 21st around 7pm after being away for 3 weeks...had a good time visiting family and friends long the way also a couple more national parks...


the last few days on the road we visit friends in south bend ,in who are getting ready to move to florida and they probally already have arrive at their new home...we at least had time to catch up on happenings and also some other long time habitat friends joined us for lunch we have not seen russ and peg for s few years...

then on to  indianna sand dunes lakeshore national park and of course we earned another junior ranger badge...after that we headed to adrian, mi and yep meet up with more habitat friends for dinner ...we forgot to camera so we didn't take a picture of this renuion..

now it is time to really start heading east and we wanted to make a stop in ohio to a national park we have often driven by on our way home and heading to flaconer to visit with lar's mom...she has passed so we decided to make a stop at the cuyoga national park...

lar sent out an e-mail saying where we were and low and behol

d we recieved an e-mail for friends back home letting us know that they were in the same park and only a couple rv sites down the row...we had been out for a walk around 7 and they arrived around 7:30 but by then we were back in our rig..so we didn't know they were there till the next morning..funny how things work ..so after breakfast the now 4 of us went off to the park..frank had heard about a steam engine and rides we would take on the train...so then it was a train ride fit into the schedule of things to do...then don't you know the day had been good weather wise except when we got off the train...it poured and i mean hard so we all took a shower again this time in our clothes ahhaha...just another one for the adventure book...


so the next day we went to visit lar's brother jake and sal outside pittsburgh...had a good visit with them and hadn't seen them since lar's mom funeral..

come monday morning it was time to head back to ithaca and it was a long day not one we usually do in the rv...got home in one piece tried but happy to be back...so now the rig is all unpacked and ready for winter all it needs is an inspection which will be while we are gone again but this time by plane...heading to costa rica for 2 weeks next sunday...

so life around 464 in busy but we are both good and trying to keep it that way....
