We spent a couple of days in Sikeston MO then moved on and stayed in the Military campground at Fort Knox and drove around the base there. We got to see some gold and the fortress that they keep it in but unfortunately we couldn't have any samples.
Next we spent a week in the area where Kentucky, west Virginia and Ohio meet. We drove into all 3 states and went around Ironton Ohio, where Mike's parents were born and raised. When his Grandma was there we visited several times. We drove by these two homes that his grandfather built. He and Grandma lived in the 2-story and his parents lived in the other one when they were first married and his sister, Sue was born when they lived there.
Our next stop was a couple days in Meadow Ridge WV. It was a restful stop with a lovely view. we had some rain but enjoyed cooler temps! I didn't get any photos, unfortunately, but we were on a hilltop overlooking the mountains and a lovely farm with cows in the pasture.
We went through VA next and made a quick visit with our nephew, Chuck and his wife, Alisha.
We drove into DC and saw the sites
After DC we traveled through Pennsylvania and drove to Delaware and New Jersey.
We went across the bridge at the spot where George Washington was said to have crossed the Delaware River.
We're currently in New York state in the Catskills area near the town of Unadilla. The weather is perfect and the KOA is beautiful with a fishing pond and a great pool.
