First Post On the Road. (Mercer, PA)

 

After moving the STUFF to the camper we stayed at Bev’s house (that’s Ann’s sister).  After Heidi’s wedding we went to the camper to get things somewhat ready for travel.  On May 23, 2010, we left Bev’s house.  Thanks soooo much, Bev.

We departed Amityville at 10:20 AM, so I guess that is the official time we started Full Timing.

Saying Goodbye

The worst road in the world?  The Cross Bronx Expressway.   This has got to be the slowest, bumpiest, worst maintained road in the world.  I am looking forward to the roads going to Alaska.  They have got to be better than the Cross Bronx.

After several hours fighting the NY traffic, we made it to I-80.  Ann was exhausted.  First stop was in the Pocono’s where turning a corner on one of the roads in the campsite I cut too close and caught the rolled up awning on a tree. 

We left the Pocono’s and continued on I-80 west across PA.  We are now in a nice campground in Mercer, PA., right on the boarder of PA and Ohio.  We will stay here for the Memorial day weekend to get some rest and organize things in the camper and do some laundry.

Next stop is Elkhart, Indiana (capital of the RV industry).  We will have the pin box on the RV serviced by Trail Air and find someone to fix the awning.  The oil in the truck is due to be changed, so maybe we will do that too.

See you down the Roan Road…
