Bowling Green, KY
Read more: Bowling Green, KYFriday, May 11th We said goodbye to the Mississippi River and to Tom Sawyer Campground and the river bugs.

Corning Museum of Glass
Read more: Corning Museum of GlassTuesday, June 27th, we headed off in the morning for Lawrenceville, PA. Roads are either getting better or I’m just getting used to these narrow, winding roads and don’t get as freaked out anymore. I think it’s a combination of the two. We see rolling hills, sheep and cattle grazing, and enjoy lovely temps and…
