Full-timing Journal, Entry 3: From Clinton to the Cape

We had a lovely two-night stay in Clinton, CT. After previous disasters with the black water hose popping off (that was the first "dumping" experience), this time that part of the setting up went quite smoothly for Beau.

However, we learned a few new things -- like don't turn on the water pump when connected to the water line at the campsite. (Hope we didn't burn it out.) Or don't go out for a jaunt in the car and forget that you were filling the fresh water tank! Oh well, a little mud puddle (lake) under the RV is not the worst disaster.

So we had Beau's son Christopher and his wife Bailey and little son Kyle, plus our pals Robert and Barbara Karp for a cookout - our first one as RVers. A fun time! Kyle wanted the RV ignition key so he could drive "the bus" (he is 2 and a half). Sad to see them go home....

After dark, we enjoyed the camp fire and the stars and were entertained by an impromptu fire juggler from a neighboring site. Hopefully, Barbara got a photo!

Today, we said a painful goodbye to the Karps, departed in a cloud of donkey dust, and a few hours later arrived (with no mishaps) at the Cape Cod Camp Resort in Falmouth, MA. We are in the WOODS, people. YIKES. Will keep you up to date!!

I know, I know, we need some new photos. But I wanted to show Buddy in "travel mode." Our camera broke; we'll try to remember to go out and buy a new one tomorrow.

Tanks, Panky

  1. You must get the book "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!" for Kyle. He will love it!
