Camped in Beavertails Campground the last night in the USA, right on the Vermont /New Hampshire  border, I walked from State to State to State, back and forth across the bridge for my morning walk! Then we headed for Tim's in Bangor, then the border, then camped another night free, behind Sobeys in St. Stephen, New Brunswick, Canada. Lots of wildlife behind the Sobeys , the only thing disturbing us was a guy mowing his lawn nearby with a sit on mower and jacking lights on the mower!  Remember we mentioned IE (illegal electricity), well in Louisiana, Lucy & Andy provided the camper with IEEEEEEEE!, That's free electricity for more than a week!     Two cartons of cigs and two forty pounders of whiskey for exactly $100.00.  Would cost 250 bucks here at home, I wonder if it would pay to move near the border once you are pensioned off!  Stopped off to visit my buddy, Jimmy Flynn in Cornhill, N.B., we had a great chat, I gave him some new jokes, I have been giving them to him for years, Ha,Ha.  Two hawks, welcomed us as we neared the Nova Scotia border, we then spent the most relaxing time ,as always at Paul's daughters place in Amherst, the next day seen us ambling along the Noel Shore towards home!
Today we took the truck in for it's first oil change, so I guess our trip is officially over! We hope you have enjoyed following us, we had a great time, all 5200 miles of it! Thanks once again to our Louisiana friends for the most relaxing end to our winter, first day of summer tomorrow in Nova Scotia!

We are still winding down, that was a wonderful trip, cleaned the camper and truck all day yesterday, doing laundry, sleeping in, went down to the legion today for a few, our wind up of the trip is still forthcoming, stay tuned!  Paul & Trish

We're home, later on today, when we fianlly wake up, we will finish up the report for the trip and then maybe summarize the whole experience, it was a fantastic month, thanks  to family and friends for following!

A state trooper stopped us in New York, he said we were doing 45 in a 30 mph zone, I told him there must be something wrong with your radar, "Why's that," he said, I told him how Trish keeps very accurate records during our travels, that we travelled from Louisiana and every day she does the math, we never ever accompished more than 29.7 miles per hour no matter how many hours we drove!
We stayed in the quietest Wal*Mart ever near Schenectady!  There were even picnic tables near the camper! Stopped in Manchester, Vt, fly-fishing museum, Orvis fly-fishing school, all on the Battenkill River.  Then we seen damage from flooding on the Mad River, two houses on their sides, a trailer broke in half, and lots of hold-ups, while they repair the roads!  We asked a guy in a New Hampshire town if they had a Tim Hortons, he said no , but there's Duncan!   I said is that on the #2 highway, he said no, it's across the street,  see, Dunkin Donuts!

Sunday morning and we found Tim Hortons in West Virginia, we went in and worshipped our luck,  we do travel with own can of Tim's, but now we could have a breakfast sandwich, and a chocolate glazed do-nut to go, just like heaven!  We thought we seen everything when we saw dead coyotes hung on the fences in Texas near the cattle, but here in WV, they hang dead crows in the gardens, instead of scarecrows!  We spend so much time in Wal-Marts at night, that we yawn each time we pass one during the day!
The Wal-Mart in Morganstown, WV is on Don Knotts Boulevard, made us think of our short stay in Mayberry, actually Mt. Airy, North Carolina, get a hair cut at Floyd's Barbour Shop and get a $20.00 ride in a Mayberry Sheriff's car! Managed to get gas today for 3.39, that will be it, 3.85 by the time we hit Maine, that will still be $1.40 a gallon cheaper than NS. I'm talking our gallons!  Trish bought cigs today for $4.00 compared to $12.00 at home, thirty beer for $21.00.
We seen a sign on a truck today , it said,  "Got - r- Done, Now Retired"  , we are having one made for the camper, Trish and I worked for over 100, yes 100 years between us, we deserve every minute of this, this being the "life", the life on the road!  Homesweethighway! 

When we signed in to the state park in Kentucky, I asked the password to acquire wifi, the kid listed off 26 characters and numbers, I told him, he must be joking, and then told him one of Jimmy Flynns jokes, Jimmy gets on the mike and says, who has the license plate number A4FB07630FAC3CS7C3D98EF6,
please move your car, your license plate is blocking the driveway! The time change screwed us up on meeting Bopper & Mark in Manchester, Kentucky, we tried twice, but would encourage all our followers to go to (bopperand mark.com) and support all their efforts for Charity.  Help us support Bopper and Mark, by far the best contestants ever on The Amazing Race. Made a wrong turn, we were in Ohio for ten minutes, setteled back in West Virginia for a rest, only drove 4 hours today!  Tomorrow Pennsylvania, next day New York State!
