Kristi took some pictures of the Bahnmiller clan so here we all are.

Life in Onsted

Devyn's cousins Hunter & Tyler were here for a couple days so we were sure to take advantage of them. For helping wash our home Judy took them to the fair.

Hey Devyn, your suppose to ride the horse not the goat!

Remmington & Annie are doing just fine, they like to roam around the house in the evening. Remmy really likes mullberry leaves.

There's a new kitten at the Bahnmiller's...Ally, short for alligator because she likes to bite rather than scratch. She is a very nice, cute, active kitten with a great personality.

Onsted, Devyn, Randy & Kristi

We made a stop Thursday in Elkhart to visit Mor/ryde and have our suspension system checked. They replaced the rubber springs with a heavier rubber as the ones on the HitchHiker were too soft and didn't have sufficient travel. We now have a stiffer rubber spring that was on before and had a harsh ride, we'll see what happens in a year. Everything else was OK.
We made it back to Onsted & the pasture Thursday late afternoon and set up. It's been quite hot in Elkhart & Onsted, no surprise. It's great to be back & see Randy & Kristi, last we saw them was in April in Biloxi. Devyn was overnighting at a friends house Friday so we picked her up Saturday afternoon so the fun has begun! Judy is a happy granny with her family.....and she can cut some grass...lots of it. Life is good.

Huron, OH......................>

Randolf, NY

Cooperstown, NY

Pownal, VT

Our first stop westbound was Friday night in Pownal, VT so we can add Vermont to our RV state map. We overnighted with Stan & Connie, it was fun (sarcastic word) taking the secondary roads across NH & VT. The mountains are just hills compared to out west but the ups & downs are short but steep and you can't get much speed up before climbing. One took us down to 20mph, the slowest we have every climbed.

The second stop was in Cooperstown, NY Saturday & Sunday nights to see Bill & Judye Teetz at the Mid Atlantic chapter rally of HitchHikers International. We had an exciting moment when we turned onto NY route 20 and BANG.....a clearance warning sign of 12'8". We are 13'4". Stan had also made the turn so we stopped traffic so I could back up and cut through a lot to avoid the low clearance. Saturday night the six of us went to a BBQ place called Brooks that Bill has been going to since high school, it was good! Spending the night in NY completed our goal to spend at least one night in our RV in all the lower 48 states. Mission accomplished in 4 years & 3 months. Sunday we attended a potluck at the HitchHiker rally.

Monday morning we bid farewell to Stan & Connie before pulling out. We have been with either (or both) Mel & Dee and Stan & Connie since May in Washington DC. We made the 300+ mile trip to Randolf, NY to spend Monday night.

Tuesday night was in Huron, OH after 200 uneventful miles. The way it should be!

Travel time is here

We are now headed to Michigan with a 2 night stop in New York for a rally with 3 travel days before and after the rally stop. Today we made it 264 miles to New Hampshire. We are in a nice small 20 site CG with excellent WiFi so I can get caught up on the blog. We are on a hill overlooking a pond and as I sit here in my recliner with the window open there is a gentle rain falling and the bull frogs are croaking. Nice.

The lady from the CG has a surveillance camera watching for incoming RV's, good that she did. Stan & I had an obstacle course between a car, pylons & the office buildings to get in here. The lady came rushing out of the office to guide us between the buildings, she was very helpful. Now, if I can only get out of here tomorrow in one piece!

After we set up we went to a golf course that was recommended for lunner.....lunch & dinner. It was pretty good, on the way back we filled up with diesel....$3.90, cheapest we've seen it in a month.

Ain't no moose in Maine!

The bottom pictures are of our site in Medway Maine. President Obama, Senators Stabenaw & Levin & Representative Walburg all screwed up and let Judy & I return to the good ole USA! I guess they all want to hear from me some more.

If you click on the picture of our truck to enlarge it you can see the stand off between Patches and one of the CG rabbits. She had several standoffs with them during the 3 days we were there. We were waiting for Stan & Connie to catch up after their Bay of Fundy stop.

Do you like the nice pictures at the top? Do you see the moose? No? Well neither did we! We did have a pleasant 3 or 4 hour pontoon ride around the Maine woods looking for them. There ain't no moose in Maine!

Bye bye Canada

The caravan is over, it ended Friday morning but we stuck around for 2 more days. This is our last Canadian campsite in Moncton, NB. Stan & Connie went to the Bay of Fundy to check the tides out but we passed & started back. We'll link up together in Maine.
