Home!

We reluctantly left our nice little campsite in West Virginia and hit the road with only about 200 miles to go.  It was drizzling, and we had clouds and fog.  We got our cheapest gas ($3.19/gal) in Wytheville, VA, and arrived home around 12:30.

We had to wait a little while to pull the motorhome in.  There were some limbs down in the driveway and the battery in the Explorer was dead, so we couldn't move it for a while.  The basement doesn't look as bad as we had thought, although it will take a while to get things back together again after the water damage.

Good things about being back:

-Dogs don't have to be on a leash all the time.
-Fast Internet!
-Have a TV again (good or bad?)
-Birds have their bigger cages
-Recycling picked up at our house...rather than hanging onto it and looking for a recycling bin
-Seeing our friends again!

Bad things about being back:

-HUGE pile of mail to go through!
-Have to wash the cars and motorhome
-It's over!!

Here are my last pictures:



Clouds over the valley



We're in the fog!
Looks like San Francisco!

He's telling me that his ball is under the chair.


Arriving at our street!

Motorhome is back to rest for a while.

  1. I have loved looking at your pics everyday and reading about your adventures. What a disappointment tomorrow will be when there is no new entry for your trip. You need to keep up the blog with your wildlife work.

  2. Welcome home! I'm going to miss following along - its been fun to read every day. Let me know if you need any tips for turning your blog into a printable book. There is a site where you give it the address and select a few options and it will put all the posts into a book in order with the pictures and captions.
