New York and PA

We visited Mohonk house in upstate NY…what an amazing place that looks just like it must have looked at the turn of the century. The estate is massive and from the gate to the hotel is more than a mile.


We didn’t get a chance to hike, but we understand the hiking there is great.

We then went to Bucks County, PA to visit our friends Randy and Debbie. We parked the “beast” in their driveway and stayed in their newly remodeled guest room that was like a 5 star hotel….they are lucky that we didn’t stay longer.

They are terrific hosts and took us to a bar and restaurant that they knew we would love…and they were right. Next day they took us on a tour of the area which is rural and beautiful. We saw 7 covered bridges, lots of farm animals and pretty countryside. We also saw the amazing Mercer Museum and Moravian Tile works. This building is made up entirely of cement!

 A great trip!

We're in Fancy Gap VA, on the Blue Ridge Parkway...but the weather is not cooperating...rain and fog. So we're heading to Chapel Hill, NC tomorrow to visit our daughter and son-in-law and then head home next week.

We've been gone approaching 3 months and Maryellen says she's out of underwear so we have to go home.
