The New-New England Adventure

Well, departure day finally arrived. After all the planning and waiting we were on our way to New England. I guess England was so bad that they had to name it "New". Now that I think of it, who gets to name these places any way. The plan is to travel through the lower part of the Adirondacks, mountains then on to Boston for two days.. From Boston we will visit Pemaquid Point on our way to Bar Harbor. Then on to Cobcooks Bay. After taking our sea sick meds we will take a ferry from St Johns, New ( there is that word again - how about just Brunswick) to Nova Scotia. More seasick meds as we return to St Johns and take scenic Rt 2 through ( here we go again ) "New" Hampshire to White Mountain. Through Vermont to Ontario and then on to New Ohio and home. All this will take 4 weeks and 3,400 miles and globs of gas at 10MPG. If those nasty Oil Companies take more profits we may not make it home.

After picking up the rental RV from Richmond IN for Dirk and Colleen, our always stalwart travel partners, we were on our way,. Our first leg was a long one, 400 miles to Erie PA. Not much to see here but on a walk around the campground we saw the strangest animals in a pen. It was a baby, miniature goat. Now you ask yourself, who would want a miniature goat. Not big enough to eat and too small to cut your grass . Naturally, Faye wanted to take it home
