I won't make this long because I have to grab some breakfast and get out of this campground. Heading to Fundy National Park, but I posted on my blog yesterday about my walk around the town of Saint John, a whale in the museum, and the reversing falls. Check out the video at the end!

And it's almost 10 am where I am because I am in the Atlantic time zone!

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning Judy everyone else...i have been getting caught up on your blog Judy and really enjoy it.... somehow it got misplaced on my computer now I have catch up to do.... anyway my son came in yesterday and fix the bathrooms brain it has come apart no big deal for a fix... and while he was here I asked him to wash the roof on my motorhome well he went ahead and watch the whole thing so very thankful.... today I'm going to continue organizing and packing the motorhome I'm taking my time because I know what happens when I try to do too much with my back and spine.... I can't wait to get on the road I'm excited but I will be missing my companion a sweet little girl Maggie.... I still cry over her everyday but I am going to be looking for another Papillon.... who knows maybe I'll run across one on my travel south.... I think out of Winchester this time I will be taking off road instead of the interstate as much as possible starting out on 17 and then going to 301 that runs along 95 we will see how it goes I want to stop in see some sights on the way I think that's the best way to do it by the time you see a sign on the interstate you're already halfway down the road from it anyway that's my jello plan for now.... everybody have a fun filled day & B safe...donna
PS.... made some blog post if you want to take a look

Good Morning to all! Enjoyed your posts Judy, looks like you are having a fun time.
I am at work as usual, but only 7 more days left. I have my first trip already planned and reservations made for Door County. I am so excited to get my TT home and to make it my own.
Hope everyone has a great day, travel safe!

It's a good morning for me already! Heard back from the garage, and my 15-year-old van looks like it will hold together for a couple more years! :D (I should add that this mechanic is the only one I've ever known to be completely honest.) So I'll put some money into small repairs, get new tires, and we'll be good to go.

I'm so pleased. I've gotten really attached to this old van. I even named her after a song that a friend wrote -- Big Bess. :lol:

Just got in from water aerobics, now I need to continue working on my county job application. It is the most convoluted counterintuitive thing I've ever seen... and the font is all medium gray so it makes your eyes hurt after about 20 minutes. I've spent about four hours total on it so far but they have three county library jobs open right now so that would be a great opportunity.

Just wish I was retired!! :D

Good Afternoon,

Judy, I will eventually catch up with your blog and others!! You have certainly had some great camp sites.

We came to friends of LeRoy's near Madison, Wisconsin on Tuesday. They used to be sheep farmers and now their son has a winery on their property. Quite a production and this is busy time. The mom and dad just returned last evening with a load of grapes from Iowa. LeRoy helped with grapes - wish I had! The woman drives me nuts - one that does all the talking and then interupts when you get three words out. So we were suppose to go back to LeRoy's today, but he helped with grapes last night and is helping with wiring today. I got myself in the SS and am shopping (having lunch right now).

We went to Madison yesterday - toured the Capitol (gorgeous) and went to the Wisconsin museum.

Donna, glad your a/c was a 'duh' moment. All my electrical/12 volt issues were the same. $60 to get a fuse replaced - one three of us including a dealer had checked! Next problem was a wire hanging that L thought someone else had messed up - no it was a ground wire loose from wiring he had done! Backup camera was part of that mess. So I am ready to roll on Sunday or Monday back to Kansas.

Okay, definitely a 'me' post but think of you all!

Just realized why I am getting up so early these days. I am in the Atlantic time zone, and so am an hour earlier than the rest of you!

Also, Queen, grey type is considered artsy by a lot of graphics people. Even some print magazines are using it. In addition, it is used in some of the newer Word templates for documents. I have to constantly remind my students that I want their papers in 12 point standard business fonts such as Times Roman or Arial and in BLACK ink so I can read the darn things!!! I have literally had to highlight an entire paper and change the ink color.

Nobody appreciates our old eyes. The only satisfaction I get is to realize that someday the people who design those forms will have to get bifocals and understand our complaints. And don't even get me started on having to squint to read fast food menus posted on too-small type! :x

Judy - definitely designed by someone with young eyes, hopefully they'll get to experience the fruits of their labors down the road.
