We left Stonington, Connecticut and headed down I95 to Cambridge Maryland to spend time with some of our family. They rented a house on the water and we are going to spend some time with them. Here is a look at our drive through Connecticut. Several accidents slowed us down.
Traveling I95 south, we entered New York and over the George Washington Bridge to the Jersey Turnpike.
The New York skyline as we passed on by.
This was the first time over the GWB with the trailer. It wasn't too bad of a drive with normal congestion through the city. Thanks to Cindy and Bill Daniels, (following us) we got this great pic of our rig from the back side, crossing the bridge.
A view from the bridge.
We set up at a campground where our nine-year-old RV was the nicest rig there by a long shot.
This was our view of the Chesapeake Bay.
This place is primarily a fish camp with many permanent trailers. The people are very friendly. We didn't spend much time there as we were at the house with the family.
This is a big farming area with many planted fields of corn, soy beans, and flowers.
We stopped here for corn and got much more.
There were bunnies, goats, and chickens at the farm stand.
We spent time in the pool, played whiffle ball on the lawn, kayaked and played in the paddle boat and fished and crabbed off the dock.
Some just watched the ball game.
Others played.
My three girls.
We had a few rounds of LCR after dinner.
We visited the Harriot Tubman Underground Railroad Museum. It just opened this March. It is a state park in collaboration with the National Park Service.
After she escaped slavery and headed north, she made thirteen trips back down south to help 70 more people, mostly family and friends escape to freedom.
One day, most of us went to Ocean City, Maryland and spent the afternoon on the boardwalk.
Some sand sculptures.
I just had to take a picture of this car.
Some of us rode the slingshot. What a blast. They will send you up a second time and have you let your feet hang and raise your hands, then you flip over at the top.
Back at the house, a few crabs were caught and consumed.
Sunset at the camp.
Our time with the family came to an end. We had a great time with them. On to Lewes, Delaware for a couple of days and then home.
Until the next time---.
