Sadly, we departed from the family and headed for Maine. It is still cold, which we sort of like, and raining which we sort of like, but the two together, not so much... We stopped at the only observation bridge in the U.S. and the highest in the whole world. 445 ft up! We made it to Seawall and settled into their best site, C29 (no hookups)

Surry Lane - Pelham, NH
Two days visiting with family. We set up the RV on the pad that Lou built many years ago for his Lance. He filled in a few holes, and we gratefully appreciated it. We spent two warm days with the sun shining. Had a fire going in the firepit for 36 straight hours. There was so much food, Deb and I just moaned when we got back to the camper, or maybe it was camper itself moaning at the additional weight. Got to see almost everybody, and caught up. Finally breakfast with the in-laws at a local diner and we were off to Maine.

Promise Land State Park - Greentown, PA
Since I was stationed in Norfolk in the 60's, I have wanted to take the Cape May - Lewes ferry from Delaware to the southern tip of New Jersey . Deb has no idea why riding ferries is a thing, but fortunately for me, she tolerates it. Drove thru Philadelphia (we may be buying a new GPS after that), and then to the Poconos. It was Friday night and we normally go out, but we got in a little late and the view of the lake was fantastic. We sat on the porch of the RV and watched the rain, had caprese and then a dinner entree of Beef Stew. We ended up at site 111 with just electricity, in the dog friendly loop.

Cape Henlopen State Park - Lewis, DE
Off on our Northern Adventure. In preparation for heading to Canada, we lowered the temperature for all of Virginia by about 20 degrees, and added three or four inches of rain. We feel like we are in Nova Scotia already... Tonight at Cape Henlopen, the site of Fort Miles, a stronghold in WWII, where they actually did fire one shot at the enemy. It's been a little cold and a little rainy but we got a good walk between down pours. We got some fresh produce at a local fruit stand...it was all from Georgia...so it was local to somebody. Just for the record we are at site 94 (water. - there is no electricity and no generators on a parallel parking site)

First Landing State Park - Virginia Beach, VA
We are on a Mother's Day getaway. First Landing is still one of Deb's favorite parks, and fortunately, the closest to our home.. The park has been revamped somewhat since we were here last year, and now site G10 (E/W pull-thru) is her favorite surpassing our old standard G30. Drex finally got to walk on the beach, after not being able to in all of Florida. And after months of planning and shopping and gnashing of teeth, we finally went for our first bike ride on our new "comfort" bikes (that's a euphemism for "old people bikes" with shock absorbers on the front wheel and more importantly on the seat). Tonight is cheeseburgers, with potato salad, followed with potato chips (after a month of abstenence, Deb may go into some sort of fried food shock).
