In New York

Out last night in New Holland campground, a stray (we think) kitty came up to our MH. He/she was so cute and of course David fed him/her. So, the next morning he/she was back looking for breakfast, so breakfast it was. He/she didn't want us to touch him/her but did come right up the steps to the MH. 

We decided to drive the NH and car separately to Shady Maple to hook up the car. They have a huge parking lot and plenty of room. While we were there we decided to go shopping before hitting the road. We hadn't eaten, so we bought something for breakfast and a Zook's Chicken Pot Pie for dinner. They had a new little coffee window on the outside of Shady Maple that sold Twin Valley Coffee and lots of flavors and varieties, like a Starbucks. There were about 5 teenage girls in line for lattes all sporting chemistry caffeine design tattoos. They were so proud of them. Wait until they are 70 still looking at those awful tattoos. They are going to wonder, "What was I thinking?" Coffee in hand, David and I hit the road for New York.

 I just love the fields of corn here. In another month the corn will be quite tall. They recycle their own manure at these Amish farms, so there's no reason to purchase fertilizer.

  Nickie usually rides at my feet on the passenger side but decided today he wanted some lap time with Daddy.

 We have only stayed in the State of NY once before and that was in Niagra Falls. This time we are staying outside Newburg, NY. Whenever we travel to Maine, we always cross the Hudson in Newburg to avoid NYC. There is NO WAY we are driving a motorhome, towing a car, thru NYC. Newburg is north and a bit out of our way, but worth it.

 This campground is very woodsy and nice. It is pretty busy since school is out and there are lots of families camping.

                                                      This is the long, long road into the campground. It's beautiful here.

                                                       The road our campsite in on. Very nice.

                                               We had a nice pull-thru campsite. No need to unhook the car.

Well, I guess if you're a campground in NY you need a giant-sized Statue of Liberty outside the office--just so you know where you are.

Lots of things for kids to do here. I'm not so sure about the algae floating on the top of the ponds though.

 I took a little walk around the campground before going back to let Bentey sit outside for a few minutes. He loves sitting outside in his stroller. 

                                       

                                           Next, we head for New Hampshire, near the coast.
