July 14th, 15th, & 16th: D.A.R State Park; Concord, NH; & Home

July 14th, 15th, & 16th: D.A.R State Park; Concord, NH; & Home From Buffalo we pushed to get to D.A.R. State park in Vermont. We have camped here before and really like the park. It is located on Lake Champlain. We camped there one night and then headed for Concord, NH the next day. On the way we stopped off at LuLu's, a delicious ice cream shop in Vergennes, VT. Also along the way we stopped off at the King Arthur Baking Company in Norwich, Vt. This is a tempting place to have a snack and feast on some substantial bread products. In Concord, we camped for a night before heading home to Worcester. In Concord we got to attend a Little League game that my grandson Luke was playing in.

This was a great post isolation trip.  The high points were visiting long time friends and family.  And of course touring Arizona with our daughter Fran and her family.  We live in a huge country and I ended the trip believing there is room to share it with those who need security and fulfillment.

July 5th, Badlands National Park, Interior, SD

 July 5th, Badlands National Park, Interior, SD Did a relative straight route east from Ten Sleep to the Badlands National Park.  Stayed at the Badlands Interior RV Park.  The drive was very interesting from Ten Sleep to Buffalo, WY as we drove west on route 16 through a very scenic mountain gorge of the Bighorn National Forest.  It looks like a great place to camp if you are ok boondocking(no electric or water).  The views are great and it looks like a great place for mountain climbers.  After Buffalo, it was a straight shot on I-90 to the route 240 exit for the Badlands and the badlands Interior Campground.  That night we had the most intense rain and wind storm so far this trip.  Seems like the winds are very powerful out in the western territories. The next morning we took a short drive into the Badlands and saw some impressive landscapes. Our route east on State route 16 and I-90 from Ten Sleep to the Badlands Zoom view of the Bighorn Gorge e...

 June 20th &21st, Desert View Grand Canyon East We reserved a campsite at Desert View campground for two nights.  It was a boondock with no water or electric hookup.  No problem as my 400 watt solar panels and extra water tank did fine.  The weather was very nice with a balmy 90C in the shade with a nice breeze.
