FALL IN THE HUDSON VALLEY
The Fall colors are peaking at home and we decided to take a break from all the things we have been doing to take a nice long drive West of our house into the Catskills.

GOING HOME!
TRAVEL DAY
From: Spacious Skies Minuteman Campground, Littleton, MA.
To:Home, NY!
Day 181 – It was 49 degrees at 7 a.m. this morning. We departed at 9:45 a.m., 51 degrees, and it was partly cloudy. Little did the girls know that they were going home. They think they’re just going to another campground – would there be trees and birds; would there be ocean; would there would be lots of people?

MAINE TO MASSACHUSETTS.
TRAVEL DAY
From: Wolfe’s Neck Oceanfront Camping, Freeport, ME.
To:Spacious Skies Minuteman Campground, Littleton, MA.
Day 180 – It rained last night so we were glad we changed to sites to a less muddy location. The Cows, however, don’t care if it’s raining or not! We took a video of the cows being led to pasture this morning right by our campsite.

CRAB & LOBSTER.
Day 179 – It was 44 degrees this morning and another pretty day. It’s supposed to rain this afternoon and all night. Most of the campers are leaving today, leaving the campground pretty empty. The site we have in the field looked like it would become a muddy mess in the rain. We decided to change sites to one of our favorites that doesn’t get muddy when it rains.

CRAB QUICHE!
Day 177 – The campground was very quiet and we both slept well. Vicki’s continuing to improve bit by bit and Rob’s foot was a bit better today too. We tried to order crab quiche for takeout, it’s only 10 mins away. No answer on the phone. WHAT!! We quickly drove to the restaurant and found that they were too busy to answer the phone, but we did get a seat and finally had our wonderful crab quiche lunches.

GETTING THE LAND READY FOR WINTER
Day 175 – It was a beautiful day. Rob took all day to pack things up because he was limping around. Vicki is moving slower as well and it took her a while to do what she needed to do to get ready to go tomorrow. We hope to be back on the land next year for a more extended period.
