Pennsylvania to Maine, August 2013.

 

The Tappen Zee Bridge leading in to New York City, we had left the Rolling Home Rally the day before and spent the night at Black Moshannon State Park in Pennsylvania. It is a beautiful park and we wished we had more time to check it out.

 

 

Shamus gives his disapproval of my driving style.

 

 

We took a quick drive through Mystic, Connecticut just to say hi to the seaport.
