Hi from Maryland

We left for the East on Friday. We stopped off in Greenwood, at Camping World, to get our valve stems and RealWheels put together. They did a great job and we have beautiful wheels with easy-to-check tires! We stayed the night there in their free campground and then left early on Saturday.

Chillicothe, Ohio was our stop on Saturday night and ... my advice is not to stay in Chillicothe Ohio if you have a chance to stay elsewhere.

On Sunday, I drove 340 miles, which is a long way for me. We spent the night near Hagerstown, MD, at a pretty KOA with lovely gardens and ice cream for sale at the office! :)

Monday we had just a couple of hours to drive, but Jack (our GPS) guided us to a state park instead of to the Cherry Hill Park in College Park, MD (near Washington, DC) where we had reservations. I had used the coordinates from their ad instead of the address, and I'll bet that someone was hazing them and told them the wrong coordinates. Anyway.. after driving 100 miles out of our way (or so it seemed), we arrived late ydy afternoon at Cherry Hill Park.

Michael's feeling pretty good today. He went to the gym here at the campground while I went walking in search of the pharmacy where I'd had his chemo meds called in. I found it just fine, but then they didn't have the medicine. They said that they had ordered it but it didn't come in.

Then they said there was a Safeway pharmacy that had it and told me how to get there. This was too far to walk, though, so I walked the mile back to the park, packed up the RV, and we headed off to Safeway. Jack helped us get there. But this place had MOST of the Temodar, but not all of it. We have to go and pick up the rest tomorrow. Sheesh. Anyway, we have enough that Michael can start it tonight, on schedule.

So after chasing around for medicine, we sort of just hung out in the RV, reading and working on the computer, putting things away, cooking meals, and taking care of the pets.

We cooked steak tonight on our li'l grill and it was delicious! Right now, Michael and Maddy are playing fetch with her little stuffed mackerel. That's her favorite toy. Eddie's sleeping in his little cabover nest, and so he's happy.

My new computer doesn't have a PCMCIA slot, so I can't do anything online with it, unless we get on WiFi. I'm just glad that I brought the little Fujitsu along too. :)

Ok... I sound pretty scattered, and I suppose I am. I just wanted to catch you up a bit on what we've been up to. I haven't taken many pics yet, but intend to change that habit starting tomorrow!

  1. Janee, you two continue to amaze and amuse with your antics. Are you saying that Chilicothe is in the category with Dumas, TX, another good place not so spend the night? Learned that one the hard way. Ever stayed at a Holiday Inn with a sign in the bathroom, "Do not clean game in tub"? Well, we have.

    Keep on having fun and keep on with the updates. Dallas is in monsoon season, so be glad you're not here either.
