So we finally did it, our house sold and we were officially out of the house on May 27th. On June 1st we headed north towards New England. Our first stop was in the Ocala area at Santos Campground. We picked up our brand new mountain bikes in Ocala and then had three days of riding there to try them out. What an amazing difference the bikes with new technology makes. We both love our new bikes and we're going to really enjoy them when we get up to the mountains in New England.

Next we stopped by my sister's house in North Carolina for a short two-day visit to see the whole family, including the brand new grandbaby Archer.

From there we headed across the back roads of Virginia ending up at a Bay Quarter Shores on the Northern neck of Virginia, which is situated on the Potomac River. We camped at the campground in this community with some longtime friends, Chris and Bruce Harper.  We both used to work with her in Palm Beach Gardens. They had relocated to Charlottesville Virginia and invited us to meet them at this wonderful community. We spent 5 days there enjoying the river and the great people that were staying here.  We plan on meeting up to camp with them again in the future as Chris is getting ready to retire.

Our next stop is in College Park Maryland. We will base out of an RV park there and spend 5 days touring Washington DC.
