Massachusetts

7/26/14 - Today was a driving day for me.  Will explain more later but will back up to 7/24/14.  I went with my nephew Jeremy to deliver mushrooms.  It is about a five hour day since there are a lot of miles to cover with various restaurants and retail stores. It was a very interesting day.  In the evening we had dinner at one of the restaurants that he delivers for.  It was a very nice restaurant and the food was delicious.  On 7/25/14, I went with him to a Farmers Market which was also very interesting.

This morning, part of his family left for a visit in Michigan and two of the boys and myself left for two different farmers markets to sell their goods.  I put my controls on their van and packed up both boys.  We drove for approximately  45 minutes to one market and dropped off one of the boys and then drove another 1/2 hour to set up for the second market.  We got everything set up in good time.  We were there for 3 hours.  Packed up what did not sell, drove to the other farmers market to packed Weston up and headed for home.  We got back home around 2:30pm.  I had gotten the RV already to move out except for the levelers and the electricity.  After everything was done, I left around 3:15pm for Norton, Massachusetts to visit my friends Marilynn and Joe.  I thought it was 127 miles but it was almost 200 miles.  I had a good trip and since the gas tank was full, I took a bathroom break and then had a snack.  I made a few phone calls and got back on the road.   I got to Norton around 7:15pm.  They had decided where I should park the RV so we took off the car, parked the RV and plugged in electricity.  Marilynn and I took the car around the block to get the transmission going.  It is so good to see both of them.  Plans are to stay in the area until 8/8/14.
