7/19/14 - The last couple of days, I have slowly been getting things back in the RV from my brother's house, did some cleaning in the RV yesterday and now it looks alot better. We had a little picnic on Friday night since it was my last night in Delaware for a while. My nephew, his wife and 3 kids, my niece, her husband and child, brother and sister-in-law in attendance. We had so much food for a small picnic and everything was delicious. This morning, I got everything together, my brother helped hook up the car and I left Delaware sometime after 9:00am. It sure was a wonderful 35 days in Delaware. I got to do so many things that I had not done in a long time. (ie, gardening, helping with a calf, help cook, golf cart rides around the property) I am sure there were a lot more things but these were my highlights. Also, one of the biggest highlights was a Sunday dinner when all of my brother's family was there.
I should have taken the time to buy gas in Delaware since diesel was $3.75 per gallon but thought I needed to drive for a while since I had almost a half tank. Well, in Pennsylvania at a Shell station I needed up paying $4.03 per gallon!!! My trip was much longer then planned since when I got on the Jersey Turnpike there had been an accident and we were bumper to bumper for over an hour. I finally around 3:30pm got to a service area and stopped for lunch. Then I had much better traveling after that. I never paid so many toll road fares in my life and then learned with towing a car the price was almost double!! I only got lost once with all my back road instructions but my nephew did drive up the road a little to fetch me. He lives up on a hill but I made it all the way. Tomorrow will take a picture and post again.

I'm so glad you are safely there! Sorry for the delays, but at least you weren't the one IN the accident. Tell everyone hello for us, and if you were here tonight, there would be fresh bread. Supply was getting low, and the weather was perfect for baking bread, so I decided to get it done. I got the flowers watered (still no rain!!!) and I'm just about ready to call it a night. Love you bunches. Take care of yourself.
Miss you Lena, be safe.
