Day 42: All is well

We've had the best evening! But I'll start at the beginning of the day...we made it out of Portersville just fine. In fact, Stan received compliments from fellow campers about how he manuevered Teensie out of our site. The drive to the Finger Lakes region of New York ( a little south of Rochester) was so beautiful and, aside from paying high tolls on the interstate, we thoroughly enjoyed the journey. The temps are a bit cooler here, allowing us to open all the windows and turn off the A/C, at least for now. We even ate outdoors tonight. As the meal was wrapping up, we began a game of "20 Questions" involving places we've visited thus far. It's a good exercise in not forgetting all we've been to and seen.

Our campground is wonderful...shade trees, level sites, pool, fishing pond and a bounce pillow, something that's new to us. But is it ever fun! Stan and I nearly choked, we were laughing so hard with the girls, bouncing around on a giant air cushion that's a bit like a curved trampoline. (See below)
Tomorrow we'll tackle some schoolwork with the girls in the morning and then head to a couple of sites in Rochester. We'll be here for six nights, and we're really looking forward to slowing down a bit...the hectic pace of the past week is catching up with us. And we couldn't pick a prettier and more relaxing spot in which to enjoy our 15th anniversary later this week!

As always, we're missing family and friends, and we'd welcome any emails/texts/calls. New York is far away from all we know and love. :-)
