Burlingame State Park - Charlestown, RI

A full day of driving through New Jersey, New York and Connecticut.  Not really the image that you think of when RVing across America, but all the accidents were on the other side of the road. We calculated that we only lost one and a half hours to traffic.  The raw fact remains that we didn't get to our site until after five...a real RV nono!

Rhode Island was suppose to be our final state to visit of the lower 48.  We ended up missing Michigan, this summer, because of the storm closed roads.  Now technically, since we bought the RV on the Northern Peninsula of Michigan, we have been there.  Next year, we will get to Michigan, for a real visit.

Burlingame State Park is huge, very well maintained, but strict...NO ALCOHOL...ZERO TOLERANCE subject to arrest and imprisonment...that's what the sign said.  Picnic tables have the site number painted on... Driveways have huge boulders on the side to keep you in your spot.  Also it was NO utilities.  Well, we don't need no stinkin' power (and we can drink our wine out of a coffee mug).

Went to bed early so we could miss the traffic heading to Manchester Airport in New Hampshire to meet the kids' flight.  We were out of there by 7:00 or so.
