Well, Dan and I are taking off early tomorrow morning on our first-ever RV trip. We'll be spending the next week at Apple Island Resort & Campgrounds at scenic Lake Champlain, situated on the New York/Vermont border. After running an absolutely manic work schedule for the past few months, we're both more than ready for a relaxing week away.
We'll hardly be roughing it, as we will certainly be taking along our laptop, cellphones, portable DVD player and coffee pot! Oh, yes - Abby the Cat is coming along, too. Since we have been thinking for a long time that we'd like to do RV-ing after we retire, we thought this would be a good chance to experiment. We'll let you know how it goes (and in case you wondered, she is very much an indoor cat).
The campground apparently has WiFi, and if that's so, we'll give you an on-the-scene report of any panicked scratches that Miss Cat has inflicted on us. (Karen, you may be thinking this already, and you're absolutely right - Mother would not approve!!)
Today we're basically getting ready and trying to decide what meals we should cook in a tiny RV kitchen for a week. Again, we have no plans to scrounge for nuts and berries in the woods!
Hope everyone has a great week ahead - with special thoughts of little Michael and his parents as they continue to settle in together in Chicago!!

Have a wonderful time, Anne and Dan. The countryside will be beautiful, and I'm sure you'll take plenty of craft materials for those hours of quiet relaxation. We know that your hands are never idle, so I imagine you'll be knitting away on something fabulous for someone else!! We'll all be thinking of you. Hope the cat has a good time, too.
Love,
M.
Do use your French accent as you cruise to Lake Champlain.
Hope you can miss the NASCAR traffic out of Watkins Glen.
Gee, a campground with WiFi...oughta be a law.....
This is sure to be quite an adventure. We'll be eager to hear about your escapades in the "wilderness" and especially driving and parking a big vehicle!
Maybe you will make a move!
Have a marvelous time!
I'm intersted in hearing about Dan's comfort level in an RV. Seems like they don't have ceilings and beds quite his size, but perhaps you can get one made for really tall people.
