On The Road Again!

         BLOG FOR SEPT 5/6TH


    We're doing our Willy Nelson thing and are
"on the road again."
     We've accepted an invitation to visit some
friends on Vinalhaven Island in Maine and
loaded the Miata for a trip up the road.
     Of course it can't take us all the way. It;s
a great little car. But it can't swim (like those
Fiats we see in the commercials)! Ah hour
and 15 minutes of this trip will have to take
place aboard a Ferry Boat.
    I decided to seek out some cabins where
we stopped on our Honeymoon trip 44 years
ago and was pleased to find they were still
there.
   The top was up when we started out as local
morning temperatures were in the 40's. By
Milford, however, the temps were up and the
top was down.
    I had forgotten just how far those cabins
were. It took over 8 hours, including rest stops,
to cover those 44 years!
    Things are a lot like we remembered them.
The cabins are still in place. They've aged a
bit. But we have as well. The little lake is
still there, and the mountains haven't
changed a bit!
     No matter. It's worth it for the memories.
     Of course it is Vermont and by the time
we pulled in the top was back up and the
heater was on!
     Hope you're warm and cozy and that all
your NEWS is good!
