Sept 2009
Nova Scotia to Ocean City
After 7 weeks in Newfoundland we took the ferry from Port aux Basque to North Sydney. In Nova Scotia we visited the Alexander Bell Museum and then took several days to tour Cape Breton NP. We saw several moose along the Cabot Trail and even more on hikes. We spent Labor Day weekend at Eldon and Lois’ lot in Nova Scotia. Then we headed back to York, PA to dog sit for Linda and Rick, who went to Myrtle Beach. We went to Longwood Gardens with Pat’s father. We did have time to meet with family and friends and really enjoyed this. Kevin and Nick entertained us by butchering a roasted pig. The only thing missing was an apple in the pig’s mouth. My computer got infected with viruses and spyware programs. With Richard’s help, we got it back to normal. We are grateful to Tom and Julie for letting us share their house whenever we are in town. Parking our RV at Tom and Julie’s became an issue with their Property Manager, but thanks to Susan and Windsor and Russ and Shirley, we were able to work around this problem temporarily. We ended the month camping at Assateague Island State Park and visiting Ocean City, MD.
