On Sunday we arrived at Keith and Debbie's just time for dinner, good planning. We had Pizza and caught up a bit. Keith and Debbie spent a month in Florida in their Class B RV earlier this year.
We had made it to Queensbury as clean as can be, but got a surprise when we woke up Monday morning. It was chilly and had snowed. The roads were going to be sloppy for sure... :-(.
Keith and Debbie set us off with a good breakfast. As we had breakfast we could hear the salt trucks pass by. Don't these people know I don't want salt all over my RV And scooter!!
We left Queensbury around 8AM and headed south, the temperatures climbed from the mid 20's to 50's before we hit Binghamton. I88 from Albany to Binghamton is pretty rough in spots, but not nearly as rough as the I81 in PA, do they spend anything on their roads?
We have been using Google Maps for navigation, but I Think I am just about done with Google. It is a bit like using a Nest thermostate in your home, it thinks it is smarter than you and dispite what you tell it to do, it will just change it. I did not want to go into DC and take I495 because I knew it would be during rush hour. I would set up the route and somewhere along the way Google would change it, after about the third or forth time I gave up, google sucks! In the end we ended up using the EZPass Express Lanes on I495, these lanes were moving, but I495 was a parking lot. I have no idea what it cost or if I will get a fine? So I am in search of a new navigation program. Rant over.
We arrived at our friend's, the Malloys, around 5:30PM. It was in the 60s and raining, but at least it washed some of the salt off the RV and scooter. Of course Marybeth prepared a nice dinner for us and it was great visiting with old friends again. We will probably hang here a day before moving on south. The temps are in the
As always, fun visiting with you. Have a safe trip.

Always fun spending time with Keith and Debbie; they get us started on the right foot. Time to get this show on the road, off to Virginia and warmer temps.
