RB Winter SP-Memorial Day Weekend

[DiW]

Well, we made it home about 3:45 (about 4 1/4 hrs). Just after the 380 split, traffic stopped due to an accident. We made it past before the emergency people arrived but it looked bad. A larger camper pulled by a truck was off the road to the left with a bashed in front. Looks like it hit a tiny car that spun around and probably smashed into something else (it was a complete wreck). There were a bunch of cars off on the right shoulder but couldn't tell if they were hit or just people stopped to help. I think there was probably standstill traffic that the trailer and car come upon and couldn't stop in time (or the car cut off the trailer). Hope everyone is all right.

Quiet ride at least - everyone was reading. Courtney was desperately trying to finish a book that she needs to write a term paper on - due tomorrow. Typical last minute. Even being out in the middle of nowhere, with no electric, no TV and NO CELL PHONE, she still couldn't manage to read the book. TEENS! Oh well, I imagine she'll be up all night. I hated British Lit also.

Lots of rain all the way home but no problems until we passed Hickory Run. Typical horrendous Poconos traffic until we got through the Gap, then it was smooth sailing. What a great weekend. Can't remember the last time COTOC camped with 2 full days of nice weather - must be because Adam stayed away (only kidding Adam   . Knoebels was fun. Kelsey's first time on all the rollercoasters.

Beckie, my kids were a bit zonked also. Courtney fell asleep last night (after Knoebels) before anyone else. We didnt' get to try your strawberry concoction because we ate the strawberries before Tracy showed up (she came over LATE). My guys were happy enough with globs of whipped cream.

Tracy, we drove around one more time picking out sites we liked. I think we'll go ahead and book for next year and if we have to cancel, it's not that big a deal. I think we'd lose $10. I know if we wait, no sites will be left. I'm assuming you will stay on the site you had. We will also or we'll choose an electric one for the cranky boy ( who wants to watch movies.

Oh well, it was great seeing you all. We'll see you again in Gettysburg.

We made it home a little after 1pm,  we left Shangri-La Milton, PA around 9:30am no rain or traffic. Di I hate hearing about campers in accidents itseems to hit home to close if you know what I mean. Tracy FYI great campground clean and well run !

Great Trip accept one small problem Lisa and Matthew never made it !  I left work after lunch to come home and hear that Matt had been throwing-up and had a fever, so Lisa said let's let him take a nap @ home and see how he does, so @ 4pm wakes up a happy Matt no fever ! We load the truck and hit the highway about a hour into the trip Matt starts throwing-up, well we turned the truck around and drove home dropped Lisa and Matt at the door and she sent Brandon and me on our way. Now it's 7pm and we have been on the road since 4pm only to be sitting at a 10 mile back-up at the Water Gap !

Well we made it into Shangri-La a little after 10pm in the pitch dark, sent Brandon out wit a flash light and got more help then I needed from all of my neighbors, I think it helps to send your 6 year old to hold a flash light, mean while i did aplogized up & down for arriving so late but soon as I told my story people where feeding us and unloading my truck and wow I love camping people.

Sorry Tracy & Di we where enjoying Shangri-La campground so much didn't won't to leave, it also wasn't helping that Brandon kept telling me his stomach was bothering him so I did not want to push him.

Nowto the good news the virgin camping wife will make her first appearance @ Spring Gulch July 4th weekend ! Also states that she would like to hit Knobels the weekend of the 17th of July so it looks like another trip to Shangri-La, being I have not heard good comments about Knobels campgrounds.

Now I must get of this Dell, being I have to get repacking to leave on Thursday to Frontier Town with Campers and Company !

Well DiW got to meet my DH this past weekend, so I have another person that will vouch that there really is a DH.  I am beginning to wonder if you have a DW.
