On to New York City!

Hi there! I'm backlogged a bit on mom's updates, so here are a few of them:

9/14 - She called from Houghton Lake:

My cousin lives so close to nature! The lake is just a few houses down the street. Blondie waded in up to her belly!

I'm getting homesick!

Coming up here was awful! Torrential rain! There were even cars sliding off the road.

I see Pat tomorrow.

9/15 - Text message from Detroit:

In Detroit at Pat's. Rain stopped finally! Pat is a Leo too and started feeding me right away - love it!

9/18 - Phone call from New York:

I'm in New York a couple days ahead of my schedule.

Niagara was too commercial! I thought it would be better on the Canadian side, but it was even worse! But I paid $13 for a parking spot on the street and got to watch the sun go down.

There are nice clouds here which are great for picture taking.

They are using some ethanol in their gas out here so the gas is less than $4 per gallon.

The highway I'm on is a toll road. They give you a ticket when you get on and then when you get to the end you have to pay. I have no idea how much it's going to cost!

I enjoyed my stay at Pat's. She packed a care package for me - BLT sandwich and other sandwiches. And there were notes in the napkins! Very nice!

OK, there ya go! There are two new photos in the slideshow at the bottom of the page. Keep up the comments, and GO MOM!! :)
