On the way to Canton
We had a nice dinner last night of shrimp cocktail, Caesar salad with optional shrimp and shrimp and grits. My first try at the shrimp and grits and it turned out pretty good. I will do it again with more experimentation.
We
left right after the nephews went to school. Decided to drive up
thru Vermont to peep at the leaves in the mountains. Still colorful
thru Massachusetts and in the lowlands of VT but the mountains were
mostly brown. We crossed via the ferry over Lake Champlain and met
up with another nephew, Gordon, in Plattsburgh. We ate lunch at Five
Guys and had delicious big hamburgers, the first meat we have had in
weeks. We stopped at Lisa's folks and picked up our voluminous mail
and got to our home about 4:30.
Thanks
to Lisa and Will, Paul and Jeanine, Peter, Joan and Larry and Mo and
Ron for hosting us and for all the relatives who took the trouble to
meet up with us. Thanks especially to Peg and Karl for looking after
the house while we were away. I don't know if Edd White also was
called into action but he also serves who stands and waits. Thanks
Edd.
This
is Lisa – Just wanted to thank everyone for following us on this
journey. It was a great trip and enjoyed reading your comments.

STATS: We drove 4,939.5 miles, 27 days, 19 States, and approximately
10 dozen oysters.
AND A GOOD TIME WAS HAD BY ALL! THE END.
