I honestly hated leaving this morning. I was so comfortable at our campsite. It was peacefully quiet and picturesque. This morning I woke up to a light fog filling the campground. No one was outside yet and it was just silent. I couldn’t help but snap a picture from our front door.
After breakfast we had all worked together to clean the trailer and got everything put away. Matt started to get the trailer ready for the road, raising the stabilizers, disconnecting everything and attaching the hitch. I decided I would go check out the dog park so Chance could stretch his legs. I didn’t have great expectations since I have been to a few dogs parks that were nothing more than a patch of enclosed dirt. However, this dog park was very nice! There were plenty of dog obstacles for Chance to run through and jump over. He had a blast there. I just had to have the kids come check this area out too. Tristan thought that the tunnel was a blast. I am betting his pants will never come clean again.
It was nearing checkout time so we went back to our site. Remember yesterday when Tristan decided to sample puddle water? He was ever so kind to demonstrate for me again today. I was ready for him today. Camera in hand, I let him play in the mud and the next thing I knew, down went his head and he popped back up with a muddy face. He only tried it once today and then he wanted his face washed and a drink of water. Boys are silly. I don’t remember Trinity ever taste testing a puddle.
We hit the road at noon on the dot. We have been trying to fill the gas tank before we hit the highway so we stopped down the road from the campground. Trinity noticed that there were some skydivers floating through the air. I tried to take pictures of the little specks. I am fascinated by seeing things in the air such as planes, birds, kites and balloons but to me, people dangling from some strings and a piece of cloth is just all out crazy to me. I can bet you that you will never catch me jumping out of a plane unless the plane is already going down anyway! How about any of you? Would you skydive if you had the chance? Have any of you ever done it?
After that, we hit the open road. Took a few pictures of Ohio’s vast openness and thought about what a difference between Ohio and Pennsylvania. Bordering states, yet their terrain is so much different from one another. Ohio is flat land while Pa is rather mountainous on I-80. Fascinating.
We pulled over at a boat docking area and the rocks there were just so interesting to me. Each one was so much different that the one sitting right next to it. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.
I noticed this the other day when we went to Lerch RV. I told Matt that the next time we passed it, I wanted pictures. The layers are awesome. Just imagine how long it took for that rock to form. Wow.
We stopped for dinner at Sonic. Let me say, it is so cool to be able to bring your kitchen with you when we go out to eat. We no longer fit through drive thru’s so Matt parked us and then went in to grab a bite. Then we all sat at the kitchen table and ate. I loved it. It took us buying an rv for us to eat together at the kitchen table. Next step is for us to actually cook the dinner. We didn’t bring our pots and pans so cooking didn’t happen this weekend. I am not even sure if we can bring our current set of cookware. It weighs a ton and now suddenly I find myself checking the weight on everything we put in the trailer. Every pound adds up now. Maybe I should lose a few and contribute!
