In life a little rain must fall and also in the life of an RVer. We left Corfu and took the scenic route instead of the super slab known as I-90. Yes, I have my EZ Pass for that but why look at miles of concrete when we can see America the Beautiful? State road 20 took us through farm land and small towns that have been established since the late 1800's and gave us some ideas of things to do when we come back. The scenic route only added about 30 minutes to our drive and still got us to our destination well before dinner time.
Now the "rain". Turning south between Lakes Seneca and Cayuga our multiple route planners had us on SR 96a. It was a pretty road running along the Lake Seneca shore. The only thing that ruined the scenery was a sign saying "12'10" bridge". That is a problem since our trailer is almost 13'6"! We pulled into an empty lot and started to check maps, GPS, Google Maps, and our atlas and soon found a way to our destination. That meant turning 57' of RV around, doubling back about 10 miles and cutting accross to route 414 and then, route 96 (not 96a!) and head south again.
Except for that little hiccup we were able to get to our campground and get set up in time for dinner. It wasn't that long of a day, but it was our first day on the road in months and it took it's toll on us. After dinner and a little TV time we called it a day. Wednesday we will search for waterfalls.
So until the next blog goodbye from our home in Trmansburg because....
Home is where we park it,
Frank and Mary
