Summer Trip to PA


The girls and I headed to PA in the car the beginning of July and Ed and Eddie hopped on the motorcycle and took several days to get there. The girls and I did the interstates and got there the same day we left. Ed and Eddie took route 19 all the way into PA from GA. They traveled 870 miles in three days.






In PA Mom and I took Kelli and Eddie to Parker Dam State Park for the annual picnic the night before the reunion. Eddie said the water was cold and Kelli didnt want to get in. (Kaila was already on her way home, more on that in a bit)

Ed did some tile work for Mom and Dad in their bathroom. Of course there always has to be a supervisior and Mom filled that position for this job!


On July 3rd, Mom, Kaila, Kelli and I went to watch the fireworks in Clarion. It was a chilly night!



Dad had his own supervisory postion. He supervised the building of the new shed in the back yard.










And here is the shed!



The dogs went with us and for some reason, Roxanne inisted on sleeping in the suitcase each night. Not sure why. Maybe she was afraid we would leave her behind!!








I had lunch one day with two high school friends I have not seen in 26 years. It was a nice lunch and nice to meet up with old friends.




On the way back home, Kaila and Ed took all back roads including the Skyline Parkway and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Some mornings it was really foggy and some times they ran into cold weather.







Here is Kaila and Ed getting ready to leave Clarion and head back home on the bike. It took them three days and approximatly 1000 miles.
