Cooking in the campground



 Phil has repurposed the bbq that we had on our boat and it is working great. Steaks taste really good when you cook them in a campground.

Downtown Brigham City, UT

 After our great lunch we set out to find some local thrift stores. Blocks are very long in Brigham City. Our map took us by the beautiful temple in the center of town.  It has very manicured gardens all around.  There were many fruit trees. We saw fully ripened cherries and Granny Smith apples. Sure hope they harvest all that fruit and donate it somewhere.  The architecture reminded us of what we saw in Prescott and Flagstaff, AZ.  Lots of brick buildings built in the 1890s.  Some remodeled and some that need some serious attention. But overall Brigham City is a very well kept city.  We didn’t buy anything at the thrift stores.

Cuyahoga Valley National Park

  Sunday dawned a gorgeous sunny day with very little humidity. We had decided to visit one of the only National Parks in the Midwest.  Rather than take the scenic drive through the park which is south of Cleveland, between Independence and Akron, we purchased tickets to take the historic train that runs through the park.  The round trip train ride takes about 4 hours.   It is completely staffed and operated by enthusiastic volunteers. You can hop off at various locations and many bikers and kayakers load their equipment and then take the train to a spot more conducive to their activity. Then they ride or drift back to where they started.  The day before it had rained so much the Cuyahoga River had crested above flood stage so tours on Saturday on the train had to be cancelled but ours went off without a hitch - like the pun? We had a very relaxing day taking in all the sites this beautiful urban park has to offer. We were very surprised to see just how many lo...

  We settled in to the KOA outside Philadelphia so we could make day trips to visit places in the area. We try to find a spot that allows us to be centrally located and then we can take the jeep to explore. Our campground was not all that close to any spot we visited but it was centrally located to many. One more comment about the campground. It was really nice but we visited about a week after the destruction of Hurricane Ida hit this region.  Widespread flooding had literally washed out a bridge a block from our campground and the standing water     left in its wake had become a breeding ground for mosquitoes. We had to hide in our RV to avoid being eaten alive. This was by far the worst  spot for mosquitoes of our entire trip.  Our first day trip was to see the site of Washington’s encampment at Valley Forge. There is a brand new visitor center here but the exhibits are still being installed. This is a site the offers a wonderful driving tour around the ...
