On the Road Again - Kentucky

We are very excited to be on the road.  It has been quite an adventure in life since January.   Carol had knee replacement surgery January 28 and for the next two months, life revolved around therapy and trying to get that knee working.  Mission accomplished.    Hopefully, no more painful hikes like occurred on the fall trip.  Then the last day of April, I fell over Sandy while walking her and broke and dislocated the right little finger.  Seems like a simple thing but oh no...surgery with two stainless steel pins holding the finger in place followed.  The therapy which followed and continued to plague me is ongoing and I still don't have full use of my hand.  Apparently when one finger doesn't work, none of them will.  In the middle of all this, we were plagued with motorhome problems.  However, finally after five new tires, three new batteries, a new alternator, a new solenoid on the starter, and many replaced fuses, the motorhome is on the road. 

Left Decatur at 7:30 heading east to Kentucky.  On board are Carol and I, Sandy, Hunter and Keegan.
It was overcast and cool so it was a great day to drive east.
Motorhome loaded and a picture of the guys before we drive out of the driveway at 7:30 a.m.


This is a typical picture of three of the travelers  The boys are on their devises and Sandy is sleeping.


The bridge on I74 east crossing the Ohio River.


Jason made this clothes hanger for me so I could dry towels, bathing suits, etc.  It works great and doesn't take up a lot of room. Thanks Jason.

We have a great site #228 at Whispering Pines RV Resort.  We took some narrow two-lane roads to get here but it is actually near I-75.

Hunter and Keegan are excited because we are going swimming.  Carol looks tired.  He drove 8 hours and his knee if feeling it.  I will go with the boys to swim while he rests with Sandy.

Tomorrow we will visit The Ark and hopefully, have time later for more swimming and relaxing.
