PA to OH...on the road

What an experience traveling in a class A motor home through a tunnel at 55mph on a two lane highway!  Thankfully this was the only tunnel we had to pass through.  At least we know there are no tunnels on our routes heading to the southwest!  This lifestyle sure will keep us young, ha! 

Visit from Uncle Jack and Aunt Betty

Uncle Jack is part of the "Country Blend" country western band that plays a dobro guitar at the "Black Diamond Cafe" (see an older post) Aunt Betty is my husbands moms older sister. The guy in the back is my worse half...ha!  These two 82 and 85 yr olds can get in and out of our motor home just like two young kids?!  Just amazing!

Two more wedding anniversary dinners!

Good ole Aunt Betty took us out to eat at the "New Frontiers" restaurant near Loysburg PA.  Good ole home cooked meals with home made pies as well are served there.  The day after our anniversary sister Nancy took us to a huge chinese buffet in Altoona PA.  Such a thoughtful family my husband has...guess that's why we visit often.  Now it's time for dieting and walking again!? hmm?  No pics. this time...forgot the camera.

Home Made Wine?

 

Took a ride out to Greencastle PA. where brother Nelson (aka Boomy) recently bought a nice home in the beautiful rolling green hills.  He has grape vinyards and has recently been experimenting with making home made wine.  Of course we all had to taste it...a little too dry for me, but everyone else had seconds...ha!  

Anniversary Breakfast?

Celebrating our 31st wedding anniversary a little earlier than usual and also a little early in the morning at a Bob Evans restaurant in Breezewood, PA.  Brother Rodney and girlfriend had to leave to go back to Florida and wanted to take us out to eat before they left.  What a nice gesture on their part!  Had a grand time laughing at jokes throughout the entire breakfast.

As we were leaving the restaurant we noticed this old fashioned cider press (we think) sitting outside the door.  Isn't it amazing how they accomplished things back then and all the work involved in it and now days if we can't get a good signal on our computers or cell phones we just can't handle it?!

At the Black Diamond

High upon a mountain top in a very tiny town is the Black Diamond Cafe.  The name was given in honor of all the past coal mines in the area.  The cafe is only open once a week on Friday evenings.  Round and Square dancing and good ole home cooking comes naturally.  These guys called "The Country Blend" really give us all an evening to remember.  Ironically they all are related to my husband Ken, ha!

Off to the Alleghenys

Heading out to south central PA. to visit family and get some breathtaking mountain  views this beautiful time of year.  Just filled the motor home up with gas $169 at $3.53gal. and it was already half full!  They say you have to pay if you want to play, ha!  We only live once... life is short... the older you get the more it becomes reality.

This photo was taken up in the mountain behind families residence.  Fresh clean mountain air and we drink the water right out of the mountain!

 

"Wander Vision"

A new lifestyle, a motor home, a name, and a new beginning.

We will soon leave behind the buckeye state, taking our first journey to the beautiful Allegheny mountains to visit family.  Then eventually we will head out to the awesome southwest for the winter.  Our daughter and her fiance will be waiting there for us with open arms!  Grand puppy 'Harley' will sing a song as well.

We are a class 'A'  36' pace arrow vision, (where we got our name) large slide washer/dryer combo, side by side double door refrigerator/freezer.  We have tile flooring through out the entire coach which makes it much easier to clean.  The queen bedroom has been decorated in a southwestern theme and the kitchen/living room has a woodlands theme, symbolizing our future journeys from the southwest to the Allegheny Mountains.
