Friday's Happenings

Early this morning (8:30) we left for Ministers Island. We had to get over and back before the tidal waters covered the road. The house and grounds were at one time very beautiful. The grounds still are, but the house is in great disrepair. No money for its restoration or upkeep, sadly.

Upon our return we walked back to town for lunch. The seafood chowder was outstanding and we dined with Sid and Sally. Also on the outside deck were Cam and Marcia, and Larry and Martha Jones. Ed and Beth Jones arrived as we were leaving and we spotted Dave and Sue Wendt as we walked back to the campground. They were dining at another eating establishment. You'd never know we're expecting a lobster dinner tonight.

The second caravan is trickling into the campground slowly. Their rendezvous date is officially tomorrow - when we'll be leaving. We have an early departure as parkers at the next stop.

This has been a beautiful spot and we'll be sad to leave it, but anxious for our great adventure to continue.
