CC Trip - Back Home


It was a long haul today, from eastern Ohio thru Pennsylvania, New York and finally back to Brookfield, CT.  





It was the trip of a lifetime, and if we didn't miss our family and friends so much, we'd still be out there somewhere.  We logged over 7,700 miles on the motorhome, and close to 1,000 additional miles on the jeep.  The only problem we encountered was with one of our TVs, which will hopefully be resolved soon. 

We both agree the best summer weather is in Colorado, which also wins for scenery, although Sedona was a close second.  We told our family and friends in Arizona and Las Vegas, that we love them, but they will NEVER see us again in the summertime!  Arizona also wins for the best highway system, and also the best radar for speeders.  The have cameras mounted on poles sticking out of SUVs, synchronized to radar, and if you are speeding, the camera flashes your photo and the license plate of your vehicle.  I know so much about this because I passed a dump truck and as I came back into the right lane, the flash went off as I drove past.  I'm NOT looking forward to getting that ticket in the mail.

We enjoyed posting our stories and photos, and we're happy our friends enjoyed the trip too! Until the next trip.......Ciao!
