New Chapter

11/3/2021

Today was the first day of the rest of our lives!  Corney? Yes I know. 

Well Gene and I got off to a great start!  Great weather, new camper, new truck. 

Getting used to the RV GPS is something to get used to. 

Right now it is a little awkward because it is supposed to connect to the windshield. 

Gene thinks it is in the way. 

The new truck has Car Play, which normally would be super, but I have not figured out how to use

the RVGPS app with car play and have it turn by turn.  

Ok, so much for that.  Well we did manage to get stuck right in the middle of New York traffic. 

Add 1.5 hours to an already 6.5 hour trip.  Then a gas break, lunch break and supper break. 

Got here in the dark.  Not a fun experience and one we hope to avoid in the future. 

All in all, all is good so far.  

This is one of the structures that is being renovated in NY.

We stayed at the Philadelphia south/Clarksboro NJ KOA. 

We arrived in the dark which was not an ideal situation.  T

here will be no details of the parking experience!  :)

Today we decided to just drive a short distance and take it easy. 

We are in a wonderful KOA Washington DC / Capitol Koa Holiday (Capitol Koa Campground). 

Quiet and calming.   We are near a pond with a fountain in the middle.  Very nice. 

Off to North Carolina tomorrow.  We will stay there for at least a week visiting with friends

and seeing some sights.

We are in Shiloh, North Carolina at a campground called North River Campground.  It is miles from

nowhere!  Lots of plowed fields for the winter around.  We even saw some cotton fields! 

Never saw that before.  

Very nice site, right on the “5 acre Pond”.   A little chilly and windy. 

One view is the pond and the other is the woods. 

The host did remind us of where the dumpster was because they get “wilderness animals' ' here. 

Hmmm  I think she meant deer and bears!  Black bears!
