3/2/17 Thursday

Home at last!  We had a bit of traffic on the NJ Turnpike and then some more on the Garden State Parkway and then were okay until we got into CT and hit traffic until we got by New Haven.  It was very windy the whole trip and we stopped in Waterford to fill up the car at BJ's around noon.  It feels good to be home.  We went grocery shopping and picked up our accumulated mail.  We will go out tonight to see Nathaniel in his school play and then are looking forward to sleeping in our own bed.  We look forward to catching up with friends and family now that we are home.  Until next time . . .

3/1/17 Wednesday

Another day of driving.  It was cloudy most of the day, but it POURED just as we passed Washington DC.  We have stopped in Mount Holly, NJ for the night.  Even though we are fairly close to home, we decided to stop as the timing is wrong for going near New York.  We will be home tomorrow.  It has been raining off and on most of the afternoon, but the weather is still fairly warm.  We will probably put our long pants on for tomorrow (after a month of shorts) as I expect it will be a bit cooler in CT tomorrow.  No pix again today as we were in the car all day.  We are listening to a Jack Reacher story - always entertaining.  We will probably have an early dinner as we only had brunch today around 10 AM in Virginia.
