Traveling at the speed of ...well...not.

It's been almost 6 months now that we have been in the RV. Amazing! In the first 4 months, we went through 12 states! I guess we wore ourselves out, because in the last 2 months we have only seen 2 states. After thousands of miles, we decided to sit still in August. It is cheaper to be on the road when you are not moving! Besides that, I would rather watch our grandsons play soccer (or anything) than to see the world.

So August was fun, but too much Grandy is too much! So we pressed on--4 hours down the road. We went to a major league baseball game and moved on--3 hours down the road. We parked for a week, were awed by the sights and sounds of Niagara Falls, met 3 couples who are also RVing, and found mundane things, like cooking fresh produce from the farmers' market, are also rewarding.

Now here we are in central New York with nothing to do. We found a great park where we can exercise and try to shed some of those 'banana-split pounds'-- (We decided that it's okay to have banana-splits for supper when our grandsons are with us!)--but it started raining and has only stopped for a few hours. And it's cold! So we drive to the casino to swim in the indoor pool, have breakfast, clean the RV, go to Walmart, visit with the neighbors and cook supper. I could be doing THIS in a house! Perhaps, I'm just missing that Vegas sun!

Another day or 2 of waiting for better weather and we will be off again. Here's hoping we will find a rhythm of traveling and stopping with less time just sitting!
