Day 6 as a Fulltimer

Well here we are on day 6 in Fairview, PA. Starting to enjoy ourselves, finally after a rough beginning. We've had some kinks to work out; issues with motorhome, tow dolly and the car. We've fixed a few and still have stuff to repair, but taking it in stride finally.

Today we went to Presque Isle on Lake Erie, about an 8 mile drive from CG. Drove the loop around and explored a couple of spots. Perry Monument was a pretty area. It pays tribute to Oliver Hazard Perry. He was a bit quirky. He was afraid of cows so he avoided them at all costs. Weird. Misery Bay is named as such because it was miserable in the winter months there. I guess when the area was frozen over they would cross it to the mainland to get supplies.

We drove over to beach #9. Awesome. Dog friendly too. Belle jumped right into the water. Pippi got close, and left it at that. Belle attacked those silly waves with gusto. A few brave folks were actually sunning themselves. Temps are in 70s. We saw a couple of guys putting fancy flags and kites out. One looked like a real sea gull flying right above the pole close by.. hah. It was a kite. We felt kind of silly thinking that it was a real gull.

We found a picnic table, pulled out our packed lunch and enjoyed the view. Meanwhile Belle decided it would be cool to dry off in the sand, by flopping and rubbing her wet fur in the sand. Nice. The sand is different than what we New Englanders are use too. It's very gritty and speckled with black grains of sand. Not the white fine sand you see in New England. Pippi stayed close to my side, "can we go now, mom?" Treats and hugs gave us more time to just sit. Belle was ready go again. Wet dog stink.

We finished the drive around the park. Its huge. Big enough for people to bike, rent segways or ride adult size big wheels.
