It’s Sunday and we are in Glen Mills, PA. If you didn’t catch yesterday’s post, we are biding our time in a hotel until our truck’s transmission is repaired. Yesterday, I spent four hours at the pool. It was a glorious experience to alternate between the warm sun and the cool water. I remember a …
Want to make God laugh? Our plan was to leave eastern Pennsylvania this morning. To be extra safe, we stopped at a local RV repair shop to have our hitch serviced and pick up a few camping items. While there, the head mechanic said, “Just so you know, your truck is leaking transmission fluid.” Uh,oh. …
Today, we had lunch with Beth’s sister and brother in law in KOP (that’s the cool new name for King of Prussia, PA). Driving through the city and taking in the people, the cars and the stores, I noticed that KOP has become much more upscale, so much so that I think people knew I …
We have left LBI after 17 days of work and play. We were glad to arrive and happy to leave. Our youngest daughter once shared her thought about traveling momentum. The longer one stays in one place, the harder it becomes to detach and move onward. It’s natural for us humans to start laying down …
Today is hot, hot, hot and the sand flies are back, back, back in town. Accordingly, I am enjoying indoor activities where they cannot attack me. First, we caught up with our friend, Barbara, one of our first clients and, now, best friends. She and her husband, Michael, are snowbirds who we met when Barbara …
Today was interesting in a few different ways… First, the ocean was delightful, so much so that we skipped out on our weekly ACA meeting to luxuriate in the cool, clean, healing waters. We missed being with our friends, but Beth and I were drawn to the sea. We spent two hours, 9:30 -11:30 am, …
Saturday marks our first free day after camp is finished, Beth and I took a delightful, long walk on the beach. It was already very hot at 8 am, so I was happy to return to the AC! At 10 am, I enjoyed my weekly call with Jeff, a fellow ACA traveler who I’ve been …
This afternoon, I logged on to the RV travel website we use to book campsites. My job today was to book stays from New Jersey to Colorado. We are leaving NJ in less than a week, so I need to get it all organized. I love using this site (RV Life) because it’s possible to …
The boys were more rough and tumble than usual at camp today. The campus where we are working felt more electric today, as well. LBIF was hosting their biggest yearly fundraiser, so the whole place was filled with cars and people abuzz with energy. I wonder if the electricity in the environment filtered down to …
Today, we tried something different with our camp kids. Instead of taking them on the marsh trail, we asked for permission from the LBIF Director to take them to the ocean beach. Receiving the go-ahead, we buddied up and trekked to the Atlantic to gather shells and rocks and enjoy the sunshine. We got lucky …
