Hurricane Matthew! The ocean is calling me home!

I was so deeply concerned for all my friends and family in Florida, when hurricane Matthew threatened our beautiful area.  We anxiously watched the internet, and newscasts throughout the storm.  We were worried when we could not reach my Mom and Ralph for a period of time.  After refusing to evacuate, they finally took up a friend's offer to stay at their house, they neglected to mention this to us.....  Thanks to Karen Curcio for checking out their home, and searching the area for them!  I owe you Karen!



We felt so lucky to have been spared from this beastly storm.  It has created an interesting situation.  We can't drive home using I 95.  Many parts are still closed.  So the adventure will continue.


 As beautiful as the fall leaves are, the cold is not my favorite part.  Even the car warned me to drive with care due to possible ice.  Then, the sun comes out and it gets up to 62 degrees.  Someone mentioned it will be in the 80's next week!

This is the view looking up from our motorhome.  The park is emptying out.  It closes soon.  We have been lucky to stay in such a beautiful area, on the same note, I think I have put on over 5000 miles on our car. Whew!  And that doesn't count the drive up here!

This is my last drive home to Verona, NY.  I am moving into a hotel near my work for the last week.

The ocean is calling, we will be there soon for a brief break, a short cruise and on to Tucson Arizona!
