And They're Off!

We didn't realize it would take so long to pack up the RV when we got it to our house - wow, that was a chore and a half! And it was SO HOT! But we finally got it together and pulled out at about 1:30. Now it's 10:24 and we're in Reno, OH. We're just across the border from West Virginia and we're camping out behind a little motel called The Reno Hotel. It's so adorable! There are rooms to rent and also a place for RV's with water, electric and sewage hookup. Now this is camping! haha The man who runs this motel has a son in Charlotte - he worked on the Ballantyne project in construction. Small world.

There hasn't been any huge hurdles yet. We expected to go a little further, but realized that if we did we'd be getting in so late that it might upset the other people in the camp site. Apparently the people who RV don't think too keenly about those who come in and hook up after 10pm. It kinda makes it tough to sleep I guess. That's a big deal for my husband who likes to drive until he drops. He actually considered driving as far as he could and then getting a hotel room. I cracked up - you know, that sort of defeats the purpose. I mean, we are camping, right? haha

I tried hooking up the sewage here at the campsite just to impress my husband who did not think I was capable. I got pretty far and then the gag reflex set in and so my prince charming took over! We're actually not looking too much like beginners. We met our neighbor, Larry. He came over and noticed our "RENTAL" sticker on the side and thought he'd offer to help out in any way we might need. He and the Mrs. were so adorable - they are empty nesters living their dream!

Well, we're going to tuck ourselves in now and get some rest. Tomorrow our destination is CEDAR POINT! We'll check in when we get settled. I'm hoping I will figure out how to get our photos uploaded by then (I'm using my husband's computer).

Thank you for your prayers!
