Heading West

We wanted to be up early to get the car hooked up and on the road early.  I was up by 5:15 and Carol at 6:00 a.m.  We hooked up the car and finished the other things necessary to get on the road by 7:15 a.m.  We hoped that because it is Sunday, the traffic will be lighter and it was.  We took I-97 to I-695 to I-70.  We plan to drive I-70 all the way back to Indianapolis.  It was a nice day to travel.  We stopped for lunch and gas at the last travel service station on the west end of the Pennsylvania Turnpike.  Turnpike food is not that good and is expensive but it will tide us over until supper.  We were not able to get gas because the fuel area was on the opposite side of where we parked and we couldn't access it.  Fortunately, the station we had filled up on the way east was just 10 miles down the road so we filled up at Smithson, PA at a Flying J which has an RV pump.

We pulled into the Buckeye Lake KOA around 4:00 p.m.  This is a nice KOA.  Hunter says it is the best one  We have a nice long and level spot under tall trees.  What Hunter likes are all the things for kids to do.

We saw this garage/light house combination just outside the campground.  I really don't know what possessed the owner to put a light house on the top of his garage.  It looks like a newer house.

The KOA had a jumping pillow.  Hunter enjoyed bouncing/jumping on it.

I kept trying to get a picture of him in the air.  I managed here but without his head!

Hunter got a free game of mini-golf so papaw and I played a game with him.  Hunter won.

Hunter got 15 minutes free riding this bike.  He said it was hard to pedal.

Of course, the best amenity was the pool.
This is heads and tails of Hunter.

The temperatures are considerably higher today so immediately after setting up, we turned the air conditioner on. While we were on our trip, summer arrived.  Tomorrow we will be home.
