I got a nudge about 3:45 this morning. Ken had been awake for about 45 minutes and wondered if I wanted to get up and get ready to go to PA. What's a wife to say??? So by 4:15 we were on our way home to pick up our repaired truck and bring it back to VA.
The ride home went very well. Our only traffic congested area was on Route 83 getting near Route 322. So we got on the Turnpike and exited at Lebanon. We actually ate breakfast at the Quinten Restaurant and then went for the truck. We know for sure that we did the right thing by having the truck towed back to PA. The cost for the towing, inspection, oil change and repair was less than what the Ford Dealer quoted us for the 1st three things he said needed repair which made it possible for them to see what else needed fixed. Can't imagine how much that would have cost!!!!
While home we got to see our daughters and grandaughters, since Lanie was visiting at Jamie's. We spent about an hour there, took the car to our house, and were on our way back to VA by 11:15. The truck drove very well and we were at the CG by 3:00,, after 3 quick stops. 2 of the managers at the CG came right over when we arrived to make sure the truck was doing well. How nice when people show concern.
When we left this morning it was 58 degrees, so Ken wore shorts and I wore capris. It was so much cooler when we got to PA, only 42. It was sunny and mild when we returned to VA, so 2 more games of shuffleboard. I have to stop winning or Ken soon won't agree to play!!!
After dinner, Sis, a sweet lady who works here at the CG, knocked on our door and invitied us to join the CG workers at their campfire. So, we took our s'more "stuff" and spent several hours with Jill, Mike, Jan, Barb, and Sis for some ice cream and s'mores. Mike, Jill and Jan are full-time RVers, so it was so interesting to talk with them. All of them have been so kind to us while we have been at the CG. They invited us to the retirement party for Jill and Mike who have been managers at this park for 5 or 6 year. They will not be back next year, so a celebration on Sat. night has been planned. Unfortunately, we are leaving Sat. morning and will miss the fun. It surely has been a pleasure getting to know all these folks.
