Leaving Home

It is always with great anticipation and excitement when leaving home to spend another season in US of A. The differences this year is NO motorhome breakdowns consequently having to buy a new truck and 5th wheel. Also being able to stay in our home park until the last minute. Even though we had to stay in our rig for 4 days at a different site leading up to our departure, that was okay.

The day had finally arrived November 1 and of course I'm watching the weather, the winds are suppose to get up to 60-65 kmh. If they are too bad we had decided to wait until the next day but being the great adventurers we are, away we go. This year we are travelling with our friends John & Danielle. Yes the same ones we travelled down east with.

This year we decided to take a new route to Myrtle Beach. Through the mountains of Virginia. The border crossing was a little slow from Fort Erie to Buffalo. It took 45 minutes which was unusual but it is Friday and all us Canadians want to shop, shop, shop. Our first stop is always in Erie to gas up, stretch our legs, and let the dogs do their thing.

Back on the road and heading south to our first overnight stop at Mylan Park in Morgantown WV. The winds weren't all that bad for us but John & Danielle got blown around pretty good in their motorhome. As we checked into our first night away Mylan Park is just a big parking lot with all the amenities W/S/30 & 50 amp service. This parking lot/campground is for all the tailgaters when a big football game is in town. Danielle loves this parking lot because there is no dirt.

Like I said a big parking lot but very convenient

See the smiles

We walked around the community center, it just happened to have a car/truck show with lots of ram trucks. I would defiantly stay here again.
