We're on the way home! Had a great time in Morrisville. Danny was attending several graduation parties, but we got to say good-by to him. Went to Katie's soccer game in Burlington on Sunday, watched the first game and then started our trek back. Tim and Kathy had spent the night in Burlington, but they came over to say good-by before they left for Rochester. Char and the boys also came over. Our only regret is that we didn't get any pictures of all the family before we left (maybe we'll have to Photoshop a family picture). Of course, it started to rain about half-way through the game, but this time people were a little more prepared and had brought umbrellas.
I think Vi is getting used to driving with the windshield wipers going back and forth - hope the wiper motor holds out for our trip back. Started south along the Vermont border with mountain views and Lake Champlain off to our right. Very picturesque area and looks exactly like you'd expect Vermont to look like - meadows, dairy farms, quaint towns, historic landmarks, etc. Crossed into New York at Whitehall which is the birthplace of the US Navy. You figure out how the birthplace of the USN is in a small town in upstate New York! It's an interesting story.
Hit traffic in New York at both Glens Falls and also at some construction along I-87. What's a trip on Sunday afternoon without a few traffic tie-ups? Originally, we had thought about going down to Atlantic City, but we've been gone long enough and decided to just head home. Eventually ended up on I-80 in Pennsylvania. Easy directions from here. Once again, it's get on I-80, eat, get back on I-80, sleep, get back on I-80, repeat for three days and presto, you're back in Reno. Simple, eh!
