After four months in St. Ignace, we are on the road again! We had so much fun out West; we are checking out the East Coast too. We bought a truck camper this summer and are enjoying the comforts of carrying our own home and cooking our own food. Larry enjoys a new woods to check out each night. We left home Friday, September 10 and visited our Ohio relatives in Bryan and Medina. Our first attraction stop was Niagara Falls. We took the 1/2 hour Maid of the Mist boat tour. The boat took us into the American and Canadian Falls. Canada wins - they are bigger. You get "souvenir" ponchos - they were needed as the ride gets you very wet. We weren't expecting much, but we were impressed. The Falls are nice, but wouldn't plan an entire vacation around them. Today we went to Cooperstown, New York to the Basball Hall of Fame. Eldon has always wanted to go there, and now his dream has come true. We spent the day looking at all the baseball memorbilia. The blog might sporadic this time as we won't always have Wi-Fi at campgrounds. Tomorrow we are heading to Saratoga Springs NY to the Thouroughbred Horse Racing Museum. Then we go into Vermont.

Comments from Eldon: The Maid of the Mist was very wet and extremely rocky close to the Falls. For a minute I felt I was in the Perfect Storm. The Hall of Fame in Cooperstown was very impressive. It honored the players in style and I learned a lot of baseball history. Go Abner Doubleday!!!!

Comments from Larry: Camping sure beats Motel 6! More treats, more naps, and no Pontiac Vibe - I can stretch out on the bed all day while they drive me around - it's great.................
