On The Road Again

We spent the weekend getting in some last visits with Barb & Henry, Larry Jr. & Jane and preparing for our departure from the Concord area and taking Grant with us.  After almost 7 weeks there, we had a lot of rearranging of "things" and repacking some of the bins.  After all of that, we actually had some open space in one bin.  Not for long I am sure.

Larry Jr. helped me get the Saturn hooked up last night and a few other chores that I wasn't looking forward to.  Jr. & Jane brought Grant over after work and we all enjoyed a Taco dinner.  They bid a fond farewell to Grant and headed home to 3-4 weeks of quiet in the household.  



This morning we woke up early and started putting more last minute odds and ends away, had breakfast and hit the road.  I wanted to get to Pocahontas State Park in Chesterfield, VA before the afternoon rain storm came through.  We had an easy drive here except for some rough pavement on I-85, but there wasn't a lot of traffic so that made it great.  We did run into a brief downpour for a few miles, but nothing of any significance.

Grant as co-pilot.

Mr cool.

Grant burning off energy at Rest Area.
 
The campground has 50 amp electric and water, but not sewer hookup.  That will work for us since we plan on leaving Friday morning for West Virginia for 4-5 days and visit with Cassie, Jack and family before we take Grant on his camping trip through PA & NY.

While we are here we will meet up with Carolyn and Mann in the afternoon and evening for the next couple days.  They have travel plans, so this will be a short visit with them.

  1. Have a fun time with the last grandchild adventure. I'm sure he will remember it for the rest of his life. Then you can start with the ggs in a couple years.
